Individual Angus supporters and state Angus associations also generously donated other items to the silent auction, including original artwork created by youth members of the National Junior Angus Association, assorted gift baskets, jewelry and various Angus collectibles.
From its inception in 1995, the silent auction has grown annually as a fundraiser that generates unrestricted financial support for various activities sponsored by the Angus Foundation, such as the Leaders Engaged in Angus Development (LEAD) Conference, Cattlemen’s Bootcamp and bovine genome mapping research.
The Angus Foundation was established in 1981 as a not-for-profit 501(c)3 organization to support Angus education, youth and research. To learn more about the Angus Foundation and the programs it supports, call the American Angus Association at (816) 383-5100 or go to www.angusfoundation.org.
