Founded in 2010 by Tony and Cindy Baxter, The Baxter Family Foundation was created with the goal of providing financial support to the youth athletic programs for all ages in the local community. The foundation assists local programs in many ways; it contributes monetarily to individual teams to help with costs of entry fees, uniforms, equipment, etc. It also grants funds to use for the creation or permanent betterment of athletic facilities, it can be a source of low/no interest loans for groups looking to raise money, and provide financial support to help further the athletic career of disadvantaged children.

Fort Madison’s youth sports are near and dear to my heart. I have three children who grew up in Fort Madison and some of my fondest memories are of spending time at their sporting events.
