Annual Fundraising Dinner


In 2021, the Education Foundation of Yuma County hosted its inaugural Benefit Dinner. A night focused on learning more about the Education Foundation and our mission to “support and recognize the profession of teaching and raise public awareness of the importance and value of education” while enjoying a lovely dinner and beautiful evening with friends and colleagues.

We are excited to announce that our 2023 Blackboard Bistro Benefit Dinner will take place Thursday, November 30th, 6pm at the Yuma Art Center.

Table Sponsorships Individual Tickets

The Benefit Dinner is also an opportunity for community members to make an annual pledge to the Education Foundation of Yuma County's Endowment Fund.
