At Bayer Fund, we’re proud of our legacy of supporting rural communities. Through the America’s Farmers programs, Bayer Fund has given millions of dollars to thousands of nonprofits, schools and ag students across rural America since 2010.

With a much larger footprint post the integration with Bayer, Bayer Fund has been reassessing its strategy and program offerings to serve the more than 125 locations throughout the U.S. in which our employees live and work. As a result, the America’s Farmers Grow Communities program offered by Bayer Fund will be discontinued after 2024.

Rather than launching the program with the traditionally extensive enrollment for this upcoming year, Bayer Fund is committed to giving back to communities by extending $5,000 donations in 2024 directly to last year’s America’s Farmers Grow Communities winning organizations. 2023 winning farmers who selected these organizations will be recognized and donations will be given on their behalf

In mid-November 2023, Bayer Fund sent an announcement to our America’s Farmers Grow Communities winning farmers and will reach out to 2024 winning organizations beginning in January 2024.

We appreciate your support of Bayer Fund’s America’s Farmers programs over the last decade.

America’s Farmers Grow Communities, sponsored by the Monsanto Fund, gives farmers the chance to win a $2,500 donation for their favorite community nonprofit organization, such as 4-H, FFA, schools, fire departments and other civic groups. One winner is selected annually in each of the eligible counties.
