Angus Foundation President Milford Jenkins attributes the record-breaking success of the auction to the numerous Angus supporters involved in this year’s auction. “All credit is to be given to the donors of the wonderful gift-in-kind items and the enthusiastic bidders who helped us realize another record-setting silent auction at the NJAS.” Jenkins also notes that such enthusiastic support creates opportunity to further benefit the Angus breed, “It is always exciting to observe the fun, yet highly spirited and competitive bidding occur especially at the close of the auction. The proceeds from this fundraising activity will further empower the Angus Foundation to fund education, youth and research activities for the advancement of the Angus breed and benefit of Angus breeders and youth.”
The Angus Foundation was established in 1980 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 AssociationSM at 816-383-5100 or go to www.angusfoundation.org.
