Bid on a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to have Angus breeder and NHL legend Brian Sutter and a couple of his famous NHL friends come to your field day or fundraising event! This could be an excellent opportunity for a breeder or group of breeders to purchase and donate this event to a local fundraiser or charity. Imagine the crowd gathered for this instead of another dance or bingo! Or, you could use this opportunity as entertainment at your farm’s field day/customer appreciation day.
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.
