NILE Foundation

About

The NILE Foundation is a 501(c) 3 non-profit organization dedicated entirely to the future of growing, strengthening, and protecting our agricultural industry and heritage. This group's mission is to support the NILE's efforts. Money is allotted to NILE Ag Youth Programs.

We give back by awarding cash scholarships to graduating high school seniors, already enrolled college students, as well as our interns that are essential help during the week of the stock show and rodeo. Our live animal scholarships are given through the NILE Merit Heifer Program—an opportunity for young kids to learn hands-on about the cattle business. At the successful completion of the program the kids get to keep their bred heifer to start their own herd.

NILE Youth Programs

Stetsons & Stilettos

The main fundraiser for the NILE Foundation is an evening of dinner, drinks, and dancing. Stetsons and Stilettos is a time to dust off the boots and dress up for a good cause. Proceeds from table sales, silent auction, live auction, and games go into the NILE Foundation funds. The money goes to the numerous NILE youth programs, with emphasis on the scholarship fund.
