Foundation Cancels 43rd Annual Big Benefit Auction Scheduled for August 22, 2020
Out of respect for you, considering the current unforeseen financial crisis, the Barton Community College Foundation and Foundation Board of Directors, has decided to cancel the 43rd Annual Big Benefit Auction scheduled for August 22.
We are hopeful for the sake of our community that the stay home order will be lifted by that time, but we also realize it will take you all quite some time to recover from the financial losses and fallout many of you have suffered because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
After all the years of generosity and support, our board voted unanimously that canceling the auction this year was the best way to show respect to our community and let you know it is our turn to support you as you rebuild.
We are grateful for every business or individual whose generosity makes our auction a success. It is not possible to list everyone who donated items, time and talent to our Annual Big Benefit Auction over the years, but the Foundation wishes to acknowledge those donors who contributed in 2019 to underwrite the cost and promotion of the auction.
Thank You!
