A Mercer County farmer has directed a $2,500 donation to the Community Foundation of Northwest Missouri, Inc.
Shane Michael Cox received the money through Bayer’s America’s Farmers Grow Communities program and sent the funds to the Community Foundation to help the Princeton Ball Association Fund.
The Princeton Ball Association Fund’s charitable purpose is the construction, maintenence and continued improvements of the new baseball and softball complex in Princeton.
“We are humbled by Mr. Cox’s generosity and are happy to provide support to the Princeton Ball Association,” Community Foundation administrative director Stacey Helfery said. “The new complex will be an asset to the community and its residents.”
Last August, farmers entered for a chance to direct a $2,500 Grow Communities donation to a local eligible nonprofit of their choice. Cox was selected as a winner, triggering the donation.
