Serve the Community

FABO members volunteered with Unique Boutique at the YWCA of Cass Clay County. Unique Boutique is an event in which those in need can pick out donated Christmas gifts for their children and loved ones. Local businesses and community members filled a city bus with donated gifts. FABO members helped sort donated from the Fill the Bus campaign and helped set up the store.
