The Jordan Hess Memorial Trust is hosting its third annual fundraiser – this year a cornhole tournament toss for a cause and auction. The event is July 30 at Vanderbeck Valley Farms. Sign-in is 12 p.m. with tossing beginning at 1 p.m. There is a six-game guarantee for each team.
The trust was founded after Jordan Hess was killed in a car accident in 2019. It focuses on supporting the intellectual and developmental disability community through a grant program. It also provides scholarships for individuals wanting to become early education or special education teachers, are attending WOU, engage in dance, or are receiving support from an IEP or 504 program through their school.
Jordan was attending WOU to become an early education special education teacher and worked closely with children with autism. The trust is funded by the fundraiser and donations.
