Brian Berend recently presented a $2,000 check on behalf of Farmers Insurance and his Auburn agency to Brian Williams of the “See Ya Later” Foundation.

The presentation was made during the foundation’s summer golf tournament at the Auburn Golf Course.

“This is the third year we have had the privilege of sponsoring their golf tournament,” Berend wrote in an email. “Good people doing good work.”

The SYL Foundation is a nonprofit, faith-based and nondenominational organization designed to help families fraught by a medical crisis. It began inspired by a 12-year-old boy who died of cancer. Scott Banke had a zest for life and a courage that motivates the mission of the foundation which is: inspiring youth – encouraging families.
