Strategic Partnerships & Community Outreach
Eastern Washington businesses and nonprofit organizations come together every year to launch and participate in the annual Barrel Full of Money fundraising campaign, benefiting the programs of the Blue Mountain Action Council (BMAC). The generous efforts of participating businesses over this six-week long campaign culminates with the highly anticipated Community Celebration Event (with catered reception and wine auction).
Since its inception in 2011, the Barrel Full of Money campaign has raised over $500,000 for local families. The funds directly support BMAC's mission to provide vital services to residents of Southeast Washington, including food, housing, and job training.
