Mission

To support the American agricultural landscape by providing scholarships, research, and educational resources dedicated to the heritage, welfare, and historical preservation of Wagyu cattle.

990-EZ for the year ended December 31, 2025

Program accomplishments

  • In an effort to preserve the history of Wagyu cattle in the US, we obtained dozens of original registration documents from Wagyu cattle imported into the United States from Japan prior to the Japanese ban on exportation of Wagyu cattle and genetics. We also obtained videos of the original Japanese Wagyu imports in Japan prior to exportation. The historical documents, photographs and videos were used to established a centralized, online, public database (online museum) of heritage records to preserve the historic lineage of Wagyu cattle. A carcass data research project is underway and scholarships plan to be awarded.
