JULIE STAFFORD
JULIE STAFFORD
Julie Stafford is a Greenville native and lifelong fitness
enthusiast who has a passion for helping to build healthy
communities. During her tenure as publisher of The Daily
News, she focused her time and philanthropy on projects that
benefited youth and that inspired hope for those struggling
to see their light. Since moving “home” in 2012, Julie has had
a dream of bringing a place where families ages 0 to 100 could
come together and be active to Greenville.
Julie retired in May, but she continues to stay plugged into
her community and is thrilled to help bring her long-held
dream to life as chair of the YMCA Greenville Capital Campaign
Leadership Team. Most recently, Julie served as co-chair
of Montcalm Community College’s “Transforming Lives,
Empower People” capital campaign committee and she is
a board member of United Way Montcalm-Ionia Counties
and the Greenville Rotary Club. In 2021, she took part in a
regional fundraising challenge and became the Leukemia &
Lymphoma Society’s West Michigan Woman of the Year, setting
a fundraising record for the organization.
Julie and her husband Tom Rowland are working to grow
their lavender and Christmas tree farm in Morley, with hopes
of inviting visitors to Peaceful Valley Farms LLC starting in
the summer of 2024. She enjoys walking, hiking, gardening, reading and finding new ways to express her creativity.
