NPG Printing Co. Makes $25,000 Commitment to Angus Foundation

The company, located in Saint Joseph, Mo., has committed $5,000 to the Angus Foundation for the next five years.

NPG Printing Co., a multi-faceted company located in Saint Joseph, Mo., that the Angus Foundation and American Angus Association^® does business with for several printing purposes, has generously committed an unrestricted $25,000 donation to the Angus Foundation to help support its education, youth and research programs. The company’s commitment includes a $5,000 cash donation to the Foundation for the next five years.

The Angus Foundation prints many materials with NPG Printing Co., such as newsletters, brochures and programs for events. Additionally, the company is also the source for printing breeder sale catalogs and other marketing materials that serve Angus members in a variety of ways.

Milford Jenkins, Angus Foundation president, says on behalf of the Angus Foundation, he is very appreciative of David Bradley, chairman and chief executive officer of NPG Printing Co., and all at the company for their work and commitment to support Angus members.

“It’s a pleasure for the Angus Foundation to receive this wonderful commitment from Mr. Bradley and NPG Printing Co.,” Jenkins says. “Our Angus breeders across the country are always humbled and appreciative when allied industry corporations involved in our business network financially invest and give something back to the Angus breed in a meaningful manner. We will always owe Mr. Bradley a debt of gratitude for his support!”

This commitment to the Angus Foundation is not the first from NPG Printing Co. In 2007, Bradley provided an unrestricted gift commitment of $25,000 to the Vision of Value: Campaign for Angus. This contribution helped the Angus Foundation raise in excess of $7.6 million in outright cash gifts, pledges and planned giving commitments in the campaign that concluded in 2011.

"We are pleased to be associated with the American Angus Association and its Foundation,” Bradley says. “Agri-business like Angus is the most important industry in our area, and we are committed to helping that business succeed."

The Angus Foundation was established in 1980 as a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization to support Angus education, youth and research. To learn more about the Angus Foundation and the programs it supports, log on to www.angusfoundation.org or call 816-383-5100.
