This year’s historic Arizona wildfires have consumed over 800,000 acres – much of it grazing lands used by Arizona Ranchers.
Cattle ranching has an annual impact of $3.2 billion upon Arizona’s economy.
The wildfire consumes the mountain close to a ranch.
Hundreds of firefighters are fighting the wildfires.

To date, more than 90 Arizona ranching families have been tragically impacted by these fires and face an uncertain future. Local cattle herds are being displaced from their grazing lands, forcing Arizona ranchers to find alternative feed options such as hay or alfalfa.
With your help, the Arizona Cattle Growers Association will be able to provide much needed emergency relief for our ranching neighbors. The Arizona Cattle Growers Association is an IRS recognized non-profit organization.
$15 will purchase one bale of hay and feed a cow for three days
$250 will purchase one ton of hay, feeding 60 cows for a day
