Building the Legacy Sale has
become Canadian Angus Foundation’s main fundraiser focus and has
been very successful in generating resources to further our mission.
The Canadian Angus Foundation
functions to preserve and expand the Angus breed for future
generations through education, youth development, scientific and
market research, and historical preservation and restoration. The
Canadian Angus Foundation was incorporated in 1993 and is the
charitable arm of the Canadian Angus Association.
The vision of the Building the
Legacy concept is to allow the Foundation to build monetary
resources. The Foundation uses its funds to provide opportunities
for our youth, young breeders and membership to grow in the areas
of leadership, marketing, networking, animal husbandry, genetic
improvement and to learn about developing tools to enhance Angus
production. The vision also includes the importance of preserving
Angus history. By fostering these areas we can ensure our Angus
history is not lost and will keep Angus as the breed of choice
for the commercial beef sector and end users for years to come.
Our vision is being realized and
because of generous donors we can support initiatives,
scholarships, travel bursaries and learning opportunities.
Through benevolent giving of donated livestock, semen, embryos,
items and experiences, and the purchasing of the auction
offerings, we at the Foundation have been able to put together a
great suite of opportunities for our Angus membership.
