Happy Holidays from Prosperity Ag & Energy


Merry Christmas! What a wonderful year it has been at Prosperity Ag and Energy Resources. As the year ends, my thoughts turn to all that I am grateful for and I always like to assess the accomplishments and growth areas of the year. I want you to know that I appreciate your business, your advice, your kinship and the opportunity we've had to network with you this year.  Thank you for the opportunity to serve you!

2011 saw us writing many grants and receiving many exciting awards for our clients. If you'd like to see a sample of these projects, take a look at the new Clients Awarded page on our website (http://www.prosperityagenergy.com/clients-awarded.html). Prosperity was certified as a Women Business Enterprise this year, and I was accepted into the National Speakers Association. Press releases about these opportunities and new information about speaking services are located on the website at: http://www.prosperityagenergy.com/speaking.html. We expect 2012 to be another exceptional year and I offer you my committment to do the best we can for your projects.   

Best Wishes for a wonderful holiday season and a New Year of Health, Happiness & Prosperity!

Sarah Aubrey, Principal
