WEEKEND: Stronger Families, Second Chances for Horses—Inspiring Stories from the Upstate (Ep 702)


Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson 

In today’s conversation, we’re highlighting two powerful missions making a real difference right here in the Upstate of South Carolina.

First, we sit down with Kelley Ezelle of Upstate Family Resources—an organization working behind the scenes to strengthen families, support parents, and help children thrive during some of life’s most challenging seasons.

Then, we hear from Freddie Frei, founder of Dusty Rose Coffee Roasters—a unique small-batch coffee company with a purpose. Every bag sold helps rescue and care for horses that have been neglected or abandoned.

This is more than just a conversation—it’s a reminder that when people step up to serve others, entire communities are transformed.

👉 In this episode:

  • How Upstate Family Resources is helping families in crisis
  • The growing need for parental support programs
  • The inspiring story behind Dusty Rose Coffee Roasters
  • How coffee sales are helping rescue horses
  • Ways YOU can get involved and make a difference locally
