June 2021

Dear Friend,

It is with great sadness that we share with you the news that the Youth Ag & Leadership Foundation of Sonoma County Annual BBQ and Auction will not be held in person again this year. Every year we look forward to seeing our friends at Richard’s Grove & Saralee’s Vineyard in August to help raise funds for our youth agriculture programs.  In 2020, we held our first Wine Sale and Virtual Auction and raised over $55,000.  Although we were short of our goal, all money helps us support our vision to promote and inspire Sonoma County youth participation in agriculture, leadership and educational activities through scholarships, grants and a place for youth to meet. 

While we may not be able to be together in person this year, we still want to support our mission and the youth of Sonoma County. We are holding a Wine Sale and Virtual Auction that will kick off on Saturday, August 21, 2021 and go through Saturday, August 28, 2021.  We are asking for your support by providing a donation to our Silent Auction.  Your contribution will help us give back to youth agriculture in Sonoma County.

These are unprecedented times and more than ever we need to support programs like 4-H and FFA to help raise the next generation of agriculturalists. We know Sonoma County is capable of overcoming the struggles we are facing and we look forward to working with you to bring back a sense of normalcy for our community. If you would like to support us today by giving a donation, please complete the enclosed donation form. Thank you again for supporting the Youth Ag & Leadership Foundation of Sonoma County.

Sincerely,

Kristi Murnin
