The Professional Dairy Producers Foundation has raised $17,030 during a silent auction held at the PDPW Business Conference in Wisconsin Dells. Nearly 100 items sold at the March 17-18 event at the Kalahari Resort.
Auction items ranged from collectible art pieces to tools, Badger tickets and get-aways trips. The proceeds from the auction will be used to fund dairy education programs through the PDPF.
Meanwhile, the Foundation's Plant A Seed Campaign has also raised over $70,000 so far. This fundraising drive, in which four teams are competing to secure cash donations, will be open until April 30, 2021.
The PDPF was established in 2002 as a way to raise funds and award grants for educational programs.
