The Jackson County Community Foundation (JCCF) held its annual Celebration of Local Treasurers event on September 20, 2018 at the Grace Covenant Ministries on the campus of the Annville Institute in Annville, KY. The evening featured networking, singing, a silent auction and recognition of the Jackson Counties ministries.
Attendees enjoyed an evening of entertainment with great music by the Gray Hawk Boys and the Burns Family as well as an uplifting and motivating interactive session with keynote speaker Marty Huff.
Our Local Treasurers event is a great way to bring friends, family and the community together while learning about the work with do for Jackson County through our local community foundation. This event allows us to highlight a ‘Local Treasurer’ and also raise money for our funds. This year our featured local treasurer was our Jackson County ministries.
