The Story Behind The Brown Family Foundation
Bullen was founded in 1971 by Jim Bullen in his garage in Eaton, OH, but under the leadership of Steve Brown (Jim’s son-in-law) and Mary Bullen (Jim’s daughter), Bullen grew rapidly. Steve and Mary knew they wanted their legacy to be more than running a successful company, they wanted to serve others.
