As of this year, The Ben Mynatt Children's Foundation recently reached a pair of significant milestones. The 2021 golf tournament fundraiser celebrated the foundation's 20th annual event, and the funds raised to be distributed among Cabarrus County children's service organizations will bring the total given away over those 20 years to $1,012,000!
Founded in 2002 in honor and memory of local businessman Ben Mynatt, the organization provides financial assistance to non-profits whose missions seek to improve the lives of physically, mentally, or economically disadvantaged children of Cabarrus County.
