In the last seven days I have been able to give back twice to my Alma Mater. Each year K-State hosts a Telefund to raise money for various scholarships and endowments. They expect to raise $1.5 million dollars this year, and College of Ag alumni are always huge supporters. Last year, was the first time that I was on the donating end of the phone call. It was a pretty exciting feeling to know that I now had a chance to give back to K-State! This year I had a sweet freshman girl from California call me. Of course I made her tell me about her major, and back ground and why she choose K-State. Can't let them get off the hook easy! And then I made my donation, which I asked to be put towards to K-State Livestock Judging Teams Endowment Fund (working on that 101 in 1001 list!)And now today, I have finally wrapped up the K-State Legacy Bull Sale video. The day we did the cattle part it was absolutely freezing, nevertheless I returned with all hands and toes. If you are looking to purchase a bull or replacement females this spring, consider supporting your university. These dollars go back into the schools program, creating more hand on learning experiences for the next generation of agriculturists, plus it gives you access to some awesome genetics.
I love that you're able to give back to your Alma Mater, both with a donation of money and your time Crystal! Very special.
