We started this program in Octoberof 2020 and it has generated $21,225 to date. Here is a unique opportunity for donors to contribute to the Foundation pillar of their choice.

Would you like to become a member of the elite Legacy Lot Program?

Here is how it works:

■ All breeders who host an annual production sale, consignment sale, bull sale, or an online sale can commit to donating the proceeds of either an animal or a genetic lot sold in their annual sale. ■ A live animal or pregnancy will donate, at a minimum, 50% of the proceeds of the sale to the American Simmental-Simbrah

Foundation. Proceeds will be designated by the donor to any of the four pillars (Research & Technology, Youth, Education, and

General) within the Foundation. ■ A genetic lot (embryos, semen, or flush) will donate 100% of the proceeds of the lot to the American Simmental-Simbrah

Foundation. Proceeds will be designated by the donor to any of the four pillars (Research & Technology, Youth, Education, and General) within the Foundation. If you agree to be a part of this program, you will become a member of the new Legacy Foundation Group. Membership levels are based on the actual monetary value of your donation to the American Simmental-Simbrah Foundation (ASF). If you are interested in donating a lot in your sale please contact any ASF Board member or Darla Aegerter at daegerter@simmgene.com ■
