Clarendon County Farm Bureau cares

SUBMITTED

Clarendon County Farm Bureau and local Farm Bureau Insurance agents are bringing a little more joy to this holiday season by helping those in the community facing hardship.

The local office presented three Farm Bureau Cares checks totaling $1,250 to three recipients. Two of the recipients are local women in the county who are both experiencing financial and health issues. Agency manager Wayne McKenzie presented the Christmas donations. The office also presented a check to The Turbeville Children's Home to help provide gifts, clothing and other necessities to the home's residents.

Farm Bureau Cares is a company-sponsored holiday community outreach program. Each Christmas, county Farm Bureau offices across South Carolina provide a monetary donation during December to help a family or charity of its choice. Each local donation made by the County Farm Bureau and local agents is matched by Farm Bureau Insurance.

Statewide, more than $40,500 was donated through Farm Bureau Cares to assist charities and countless individuals this holiday season.
