From Combat to Community: Help a Veteran Build Cabool’s YMCA

Tax deductible
From Kabul, Afghanistan To Cabool, Missouri

After serving 26 years in the Army with four combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, retired U.S. Army Infantry veteran Chris Owen, is now leading an effort to bring a transformative project to his hometown of Cabool, Missouri. Working with local leaders, the YMCA, and state officials, he has secured $2 million in state funding toward building a 27,600-square-foot community center YMCA that will serve residents of all ages. Through the nonprofit Cabool Community Center, Inc., the campaign is now seeking additional support from individuals, businesses, and organizations to raise the remaining funds needed to bring this vital community hub to life.

"When I think about this project, I envision the countless faces of the youth, senior citizens, and young adults within my town and surrounding area whose lives will change for the better with this community center. I hope you will connect with this story in a way that moves you. The community of Cabool is counting on us, and we need the financial support to bring this vision to life. Every contribution matters. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration."

Every dollar raised goes directly toward building a facility that will strengthen our community for years to come. Whether you give $10 or $10,000, you are helping make the Cabool YMCA a reality.
Thank you for believing in Cabool. Together, we build something great.

$3 million raised will trigger ground breaking!
