We are pleased to support them and their mission to invest in our youth.”

Justin Weller, Executive Director of the Urbana Youth Center, said: “We are incredibly appreciative of our community partners, like Farmers & Merchants, for recognizing the real economic impact of the youth center and for their continued investment in the children of this community.
