Because of YOU, 2025 was a year to remember for Benefit for the Basin! Together, we make a lasting impact on our youth, our communities, and our shared future.
Thanks to your generosity, we awarded 37 scholarships to graduating seniors across Klamath County, Tulelake, and Butte Valley - helping them take the next step toward their dreams. In addition to scholarships, we were honored to support over 30 local causes including: Henley Jr. ROTC, SMART, 4-H/FFA Exhibitor Luncheon, AgriCamp USA, Elite Hive Cheer, Oregon Tech Athletics, Paddling for Childhood Cancer, Friends of Collier Park, Henley FFA Alumni, Klamath-Lake County Food Bank, 4-H/FFA Livestock Auctions of Klamath County and Tulelake Butte Valley, Klamath County Fairgrounds, CASA, Christmas for Families in Need, and many more. Every single dollar you gave went right back into strengthening our community.
And that was just the beginning! We also partnered with the Klamath County Fairgrounds and KLAD to proudly launch our Fly the Flag campaign - raising a beautiful new flagpole and a giant American flag at the fairground's facility. This powerful symbol of unity, pride, and community spirit will wave high for generations to come.
