Campaign for the 21st Century

BAF has named this year’s Campaign for the 21st Century - ‘Scatter Kindness Like Snowflakes’. This campaign provides an opportunity for each of us to be kind to our community by contributing to BAF’s unrestricted fund. This fund will help support local nonprofit and community organizations in such areas as the arts, education, and health & human services.

Like snowflakes, small contributions and acts of kindness can accumulate into larger amounts and opportunities to aid the community. If you would like to contribute, please click the button below.
