A newly formed group of Wisconsin Farm Bureau leaders convened for the first time on March 6 as the Wisconsin Farm Bureau Foundation Board of Trustees. The Wisconsin Farm Bureau Foundation Board of Trustees was established by the Wisconsin Farm Bureau Board of Directors. They will be responsible for expanding fundraising and program efforts.
“I’m excited to join the talented and experienced individuals who have so generously volunteered for this important role,” said Wisconsin Farm Bureau Foundation Board of Trustees Chair Bob Nash. “Our Farm Bureau leadership and education programs will benefit greatly from the engagement of individuals, businesses and also other organizations from the agricultural community and beyond.”
The creation of the Board of Trustees was a recommended outcome from a year-long task force.
“This is a significant step for the long-term success of the Wisconsin Farm Bureau Foundation,” said Foundation Director John Hromyak. “I look forward to working with the Board of Trustees to identify and pursue new opportunities.”
The Wisconsin Farm Bureau Foundation Board of Trustees includes: Jim Renn, Ben Huber, Robert Nigh, Loren Wolfe, Roger Grade, Kaitlyn Kesler, Ken Harter, Sara Menard Huber, Isaac Christenson; at-large representatives Kristi Fiedler, Bob Nash (Chair), Andrew Dal Santo (Vice-Chair); and ex-officio members Brad Olson, WFBF President, and also Joe Bragger, WFBF Vice President.
