Barnesville Believers Fundraising Campaign

Clay County


Donate

To comply with bank requirements and prevent delays in deposits, all checks must be issued to West Central Initiative, with “Barnesville Area Community Fund” in your check’s memo field.

Credit card payments will list West Central Initiative as the merchant on your bill but by using this donation page, your donation will be given to the Barnesville Area Community Fund.

Designating West Central Initiative as the payee ensures that the Internal Revenue Service recognizes your tax-deductible contribution.
