The National Championship Barbecue Cookoff is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization whose primary purpose is to support charitable organizations in Bosque County through annual fundraisers.  One of our 2023 goals is to honor our commitment for three academic scholarships for Bosque County seniors in their quest to attend an institution of higher education.  Our second goal is to raise funds for the newly established EpiCenter in Meridian.  The EpiCenter focuses on providing students with basic needs such as homework help/tutoring, life skills, college/career planning, along with cultural enrichment in fine arts, performing arts and farm-to-table gardening and cooking.  They also provide cclasses on money management, investing and entrepreneurial guiidance.  The Center currently has 90 students in grades 3-12.  

We are hosting our 36th Annual Live & Silent Auction on June 24, 2023 at the Civic Center in Meridian, Texas.  The fun filled night includes dinner, drinks and a live and silent auction.  The funds raised during the auction will benefit the EpiCenter.

We would like to ask if your business would be interested in donating items for this year's auction.  Donors will be recognized before, during and after the fundraiser.  NCBC is a registered 501(c)3 organization.  Thank you for your consideration and we look forward to hearing from you.
