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.

Hereford Night in OKC Sale | Jan. 5, 2024

C&L Hereford Ranch and Oleson Family Farm are bringing their best to Oklahoma City and are spicing things up with this pick of the pen of heifer calves out of Salsa. Salsa made her debut as the 2016 Lot 1 Foundation Female in Denver, selling for $80,000 to benefit Hereford youth. Salsa and her progeny have made quite the mark in the breed, and she’s not done giving yet. Salsa was the 2017 reserve champion cow-calf pair in Louisville and is responsible for generating approximately $500,000 of revenue, including the Media son that is gaining interest all over North America.

The Folkman family is an integral part of the foundation’s success story and they have stepped up once again becoming valued partners in the Foundation 1 Campaign that is building the pillars of leadership and education. Buyer takes their pick with all proceeds supporting the Hereford Youth Foundation of America, with half marked for the Wisconsin Queen Fund and the other half committed to the Junior National Hereford Expo and the Growing a Lasting Legacy Campaign that Steve helped to initiate after the 2005 JNHE.
