WFAN’s Ames Autumn Roots Fundraiser

Join WFAN in celebrating our Iowa roots and paving the way for our next chapter! The WFAN’s Ames Autumn Roots Fundraiser will be Saturday, November 8th from 12 – 2 PM CT at the Ames History Museum, and you are invited!

Open to all, this fundraiser is to support WFAN’s ongoing operations and upcoming strategic planning. Help us stay strong and plan our next chapter! We look forward to welcoming longtime and new supporters of women in agriculture for a luncheon (catered from Wheatsfield Co-op) and silent auction.

In addition to lunch, our $25 ticket also includes admission to the Ames History Museum, which will be debuting their newest exhibit “We the People of Ames: A USA 250 Exhibit” that day. The exhibit highlights local stories with national impact. From service members to Olympians to Cabinet secretaries, explore the many ways Ames has contributed to the story of America.
