Scholarships
The UBB has several members that would like to help our junior members further their education.
Jonny Harris, owner and operator of Greenview Farms in Screven, Georgia offers a scholarship each year to the graduating senior, if they win Overall Showman in the Senior division.
We also have the Bud Adams & Payne Midyette Memorial Scholarship avaiable for high school seniors to apply for leading up to the Junior National show, along with an interview with the UBB Board of Directiors.
Your donation is also IRS deductible as we are a 501C3 organization.
Adams & Payne Midyette Memorial Scholarship Sponsorship
As most of you know the United Braford Breeders established a memorial scholarship in Bud Adams’ name in 2018. Sadly this year, another Braford legacy passed - Payne Midyette, on Easter Sunday of 2021. To honor their legacy, the UBB’s Board of Directors has voted to collaborate scholarships in memory of the two men. The scholarship is to be presented at the Braford Junior National show in West Monroe, Louisiana, August 1st through 3rd, 2024.
Mr. Adams was the founding member of the United Braford Breeders Association and responsible for the development of our Braford breed. Bud and Payne both were advocates for agriculture and made a tremendous impact on the Braford breed. For those who were privileged enough to know them, they understood that the pair were devoted to their families and their faith, outdoorsmen and true cattlemen.
