Lutheran Family and Childrens Services Receives Donation

On March 18, 2015, The Rushing Family Trust made a $1,000 donation to Lutheran Family and Children's Services of Missouri. Commemorating the lives of C.W. "Woody" and Evelyn Rushing, the mission of The Rushing Family Trust is to make a positive difference in the lives of disadvantaged women and children, and others with extraordinary needs. Funding for this donation came as a result of the 16th Annual Captain Woody Rushing Golf Tournament that was held at Kimbeland Country Club in Jackson, Missouri. A total of $12,000 will be donated to 19 charities from the 2014 tournament.

Lutheran Family and Children's Services of Missouri (LFCS) is a not-for-profit social services organization serving the State of Missouri. The organization has been in existence since 1868, when it was founded as a residence for children left homeless after the Civil War. LFCS has made progressive program changes over its 140 year history in order to meet the shifting needs of children and families in Missouri. The organization's mission is to help families, children, and individuals experience greater hope and wholeness of life.
