FOUNDATION FOCUS
Thousands Raised for ASF
The American Simmental-Simbrah Foundation (ASF) committee has had a busy couple of months raising funds for the Foundation. Several fundraisers were held during the National Classic in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in July. The popular Breeders Cup Golf Tournament was held at the Hard Rock Tulsa Golf Course and raised over $12,000 to benefit the Merit Scholarship program. There were also opportunities to purchase unique items in the silent auction or participate in the BBQ contest and show off your culinary skills. Together these two fundraisers brought in over $5,000 to support the AJSA and youth education programs.
Summer fundraising wrapped up with the fun-filled Cash Cow event held during Fall Focus in Amarillo, Texas. Numbered ear tags were sold for $100 each, and removed from the board as numbers were drawn throughout the event. During the Recognition Dinner, the remaining tags were auctioned off. Circle M Farms of Texas had the last tag, and walked away with the cash prize. The Cash Cow fundraiser raised a record-breaking $14,550 for the Foundation. Thank you to everyone who continues to support the Foundation! .
