Farm Equipment Joins Equipment Dealers Foundation as Sponsor for Wisconsin Clay Shoot

Sep 26, 2024

North American Equipment Dealers Assn. is hosting several fundraising events throughout the U.S. to support its foundation, Equipment Dealers Foundation. Seven clay shoots and one golf tournament are planned this year. These events help the foundation provide scholarships to students pursuing a degree or technical certificate within the equipment industry.

Farm Equipment is joining the Wisconsin Clay Shoot at Milford Hills on Oct. 3, 2024, as a sponsor. In 2023, in celebration of Farm Equipment’s 55th anniversary, Farm Equipment and the North American Equipment Dealers Assn. (NAEDA) teamed up to donate $5,500 to the Equipment Dealers Foundation (EDF) during the Wisconsin clay shoot. Farm Equipment donated a portion of the proceeds from the advertising sales of its October/November issue, which featured an in-depth history on the farm equipment industry as well as the history of the publication.
