Foundation 1 Campaign

The Foundation 1 Campaign was initiated by Sierra Ranches, Modesto, Calif., with the intent that 1% of the proceeds of their fall production sale were donated to HYFA. The Ladies of the Royal and Mile High Night Sale followed suit and shortly after HYFA welcomed the Hereford Prep Collection and Michelle Weber Studios to the Foundation 1 Campaign. It has continued to grow as a way for organizations, families and ranches to support the Hereford youth and the future of the breed. We invite others to come grow with us and see how 1 percent over time can make a huge difference.
