Sandhills Area Foundation Passes $280,000 for Anderson Bridge Fire

The Sandhills Area Foundation continues to work to help the community with scholarships, fund raising and community grants.

 From the Anderson Bridge Fire in March, over $250,000 in supplies and cash donations were distributed to individuals and local fire departments.  There was over $80,000 in donations, $43,000 in trucking donations, and over $150,000 in hay and fencing supplies donated.

 In 2025 the Foundation announced over $68,000 in scholarships to traditional and non-traditional students.  They have granted over $1 million dollars in scholarships in 29 years. They would like to acknowledge Scotty’s Ranchland Foods for the round-up program that contributed over $15,000 to the scholarships.  They also thank Outback Screen Printing and Embroidery for their round-up program to assist the foundation.

The foundation can accept donations of real estate, stocks, livestock and other real property to assist the various organizations they support.

This reminder that November 21st will be the fall annual fund raising event.  Mark it on your calendars.
