With the fuckery that goes on with charities, I have serious doubts that that money is going towards any kind of good cause.
"100% of the money raised goes directly to local youth and agricultural education programs."
Farming in small areas like this is a big, and SUPER underfunded industry that is the backbone of a country as big as America. It keeps food costs low, and is a fundamental basis of the economy that gets overlooked.
These are local farmers in rural Texas acting like farmer hicks. Not slimeball business people scamming money from the poor in the name of mega charities like Autism Speaks, or the National Breast Cancer foundation.
A million reasons to be upset with conservatives, this is not one of them. Touch grass.
