ideas to help move the Foundation forward. There are so many good things the Foundation does We support youth through education, trips and awards We support education and research and history and archives for all our members

Greetings from the Canadian Angus Foundation!

Calving season is underway I always think of it as a season of renewal Watching the birth and seeing how quickly the newborn calf gets up and nurses, just makes things right with the world

The new calves are our operation’s future and our hopes and dreams Good luck with calving and I hope many of you find the next great one

At the Canadian Angus Foundation, we were pleased to have our first in person meeting last October since the fall of 2019. Gathering as a board allows us to share thoughts and build on

We need your support to continue to provide these opportunities to juniors and Angus members This year we are continuing the 15 for 50 fundraiser, but with a bit of a re-branding as the ‘Future 15 Fundraiser’ We are asking producers to donate 15% of the proceeds from a lot in their sale Foundation directors will be contacting members about donating If you are interested in helping us with the Future 15, please call or email Belinda Wagner.

Building the Legacy 11 Sale is in the planning stages and we are looking forward to seeing many of our members at the Convention in Saskatoon June 8-10. The Sale will be held following the banquet on Saturday night. We are looking for donations to make this sale a success. This is our major fundraiser, and we use the proceeds to fund our good deeds. If you are able to donate Angus genetics or an experience or an item, we would be most grateful

When our members come together to help the Foundation, we can make a powerful impact. The power of many people working together accomplishes great things. Donating also teaches the next generation about generosity. Generosity for its own sake creates a more compassionate and community focused world.

Thanks to everyone for their support in the past and we hope the future.
