HYFA supports the programs and activities that not only benefit the Hereford breed today but also helps establish the future of the Hereford breed for tomorrow’s youth.
Thank you for your continued support of Hereford youth and research.
These four pillars are the motivation behind all fundraising efforts, creating and developing growth in the next generation of Hereford breeders and cultivating leaders who will be instruments in next steps in research for the industry.
All proceeds from the Foundation 1 Store support the Hereford Youth Foundation of America. With pillars supporting scholarship, education, leadership and research the next generation will lead our industry with generous support from our sponsors.
Junior members who participate in the NJHA Fed Steer Shootout program have access to a library of resources to learn about the
beef cattle feeding industry and what happens to the cattle after they move on from a cow-calf operation. A final portfolio project, for
those who wish to win scholarships and awards, as well as the title of junior member of the year is completed and presented on at the
American Hereford Association (AHA) Annual Meeting & Educational Forum.
From the Gohr family: “The Hereford breed has been a special part of our family and Gohr Cattle for many years. Some of our greatest memories, proudest moments, and closest friendships have come from showing Herefords and being a part of this incredible community we like to call our “Hereford Family.” This breed has given our family opportunities and experiences that we could never put a price on, so being able to give something back means a great deal to us. This year, we are proud to donate 50% of the proceeds from the sale of this heifer to the Hereford Youth Foundation of America (HYFA). We hope our small contribution can help give the next generation of Hereford kids the same opportunities, memories, and love for this breed that we’ve been so fortunate to experience.”
The Gohr Cattle Crown Jewel Event Sale will take place on Sept. 26 at 4 p.m. PT, held at the Gohr ranch in Madras Ore.
By investing in the next generation, the program helps develop future breeders, strengthen the breed and support the long-term growth of the Hereford industry. Each year, select National Junior Hereford Association (NJHA) or young American Hereford Association (AHA) members will be awarded a pregnant recipient female carrying elite Hereford genetics, along with two embryos of the same genetics. These genetics will be sourced from top donor females and matings provided by industry-leading breeders and partners. This opportunity will provide voung cattlemen and women with foundation genetics to begin or grow their Hereford herd, while also encouraging lona-term engagement in the breed.
For the next generation of Hereford leaders, the possibilities are endless. The Western States Hereford Scholarships help open doors to new opportunities, higher education and a future full of possibility. Invest in your dreams and make your mark.
