Farmers Insurance of Auburn presented a $2,000 check, a matching fund, to the See Ya Later Foundation during the recent SYL Foundation Golf Tournament at the Auburn Golf Course.

The tournament is one of several fundraising events the foundation organizes each year.

“They do good work for people in our communities, and I am proud to help them out when I can,” Brian Berend said of Farmers’ contribution.

The SYL Foundation is a nonprofit organization inspired by a 12 year-old boy who died of cancer. Scott Banke had a zest for life and courage that motivates the mission of the foundation, which is inspiring youth and encouraging families.

The organization helps families fraught by a medical crisis. To learn more, visit www.seeyalater.org.
