Overview

Mission

The swbha is dedicated to promoting the black hereford breed by providing cattlemen with educational tools and breed improvement strategies, while offering members and their customers programs and services to advance the breed.

What it reported doing in 2025

Trade shows - we attended two trade shows in 2025 where we handed out educational information on the black hereford breed and spoke with other cattleraisers from across the south discussing cattle, forage programs, and information about our association.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
