BTC Area Youth Benefit Corp.
Empowering Area Youth to Become Strong Community Leaders
Through premier fundraising and dedication of resources, the BTC Area Youth Benefit Corp. is committed to supporting the children in our local and surrounding communities.
Started in 2012, the BTC Area Youth Benefit Corp. began as simple efforts by BTC Bank employees and their friends in the community to help support kids' organizations in the community. It wasn't long before the BTC Bank community grew alongside the needs of youth organizations and events. In 2013, the AYBC established 501(c)3 status so that the movement could increase the level of support provided to kids in northwest Missouri.
Annual fundraisers and charitable donations from our communities have allowed BTC AYBC to give over $285,000 toward various youth activities and organizations throughout the BTC Bank service area.
If you or someone you know has a charitable cause that you would like to have considered, please complete the online Donation Request Application.
