AJSA Youth Development Scholarship
The American Simmental-Simbrah Foundation (ASF) is collecting donations to fund six scholarships for young beef enthusiasts that participate in the Steer Profitability Competition (SPC). A goal of $12,000 has been set to create scholarships, and help pay the expense of capturing feed intake and carcass data. The SPC challenges participants, ranging in age from eight to 21, to measure and compare the profitability of their own animals, through monthly meetings, lectures, essays, and reports. Last year, 31 beef industry youths enrolled 66 cattle from nine different states. During their involvement, they were introduced to peers, mentors, industry advocates, and experiences that are exceedingly difficult to acquire for any beef producer. Go to www.simmental.org/foundation to donate.
Scholarship Opportunities
The AJSA is dedicated to providing its members with every opportunity to succeed. In doing so we would like to make all members aware of the various industry awards offered to agriculturally minded youth all around the country.
