DES MOINES, IA - Central Iowa Power Cooperative (CIPCO) and its 13 member systems hosted its annual golf and charity events at the Legacy Golf Club, with proceeds benefiting Wildwood Hills Ranch in St. Charles. After a day of golfing, boating, or tours of the ranch, participants learned more about the programs offered by at Wildwood Hills Ranch, including programs for Iowa’s at-risk-youth and combat veterans. The event was capped off with the announcement of $10,000 raised to support the program.
“CIPCO system members are committed to supporting not-for-profit organizations bringing needed services to the communities we serve,” said CIPCO CEO Bill Cherrier. “Each year, members and associated organizations participate in our event to raise funds to support an outstanding program.”
“We’re honored our group was selected this year as the recipient for this event,” stated Wildwood Hills Ranch Executive Director Matt Moeckl. “This generosity supports what we do best and educates more Iowans about the needs that exists, which sadly, are not diminishing.”
