This year’s Area Youth Benefit Fund (AYBF) dinner-auction and golf tournament fundraising events have been canceled due to the pandemic, according to sponsor Farmers’ Electric Cooperative.
Donations, however, are still being accepted and encouraged.
For the past 27 years, these events have raised money to help pay medical bills for area children. Since 1993, the fund has helped 848 families with more than $831,000 in medical debt.
If you would like to assist in efforts to help area families, your donation of any amount can be made using PayPal on the cooperative’s website www.fec-com/aybf or by check payable to AYBF mailed to Farmers’ Electric Cooperative, Attention: Jennie Tipton, 201 W. Business Hwy 36, Chillicothe, MO 64601.
To support the fund in another way, volunteers are being sought to prepare for fundraising in 2021. Volunteers meet about four times during July and August to plan and coordinate the annual events booked at the Chillicothe Elks Lodge on Monday Aug. 30, 2021, and Green Hills Golf Course on Saturday Aug. 28, 2021. If interested, contact Jenni Tipton at 660-646-4281, ext. 136.
