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.
