\"\"<\/p>\n

This fall was a devastating time for the Louisiana Gulf Coast region. Hurricane Laura hit the area with tremendous force and many people lost their homes, livelihoods, barns, pens and animals. In the wake of this catastrophic devastation, the Brahman breed stepped up big time to help juniors in the affected area.<\/p>\n

Bridget and Joshua Duhon alongside Lanna and Joe Hensgens came up with an idea for a charity auction to benefit the Louisiana juniors affected by the storm.<\/p>\n

\u201cBack in September, the four of us were inspired by an idea that we never thought would turn into such a blessing for so many affected families!\u201d Bridget Duhon said. \u201cWithin 3-4 days of phone calls, we maxed the sale out at 150 lots.\u201d<\/p>\n

Victoria Lambert, editor of The Brahman Journal, volunteered her time and the Best Cattle Sales Online platform to host the event.<\/p>\n

Due to the overwhelming support of donors across the country, the auction had to be split up into two separate sales \u2013 one with live cattle, semen and embryos and the other containing hunting trips, fishing trips and everything else. There was also an additional area where people could make donations.<\/p>\n

The sale platform reached over 650,000 clicks during the auctions. The outpouring of generosity from both the bidders and donors was utterly amazing and an inspiration.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was so touching that so many people in this breed were willing to open their hearts and checkbooks to help those in need,\u201d Joshua Duhon said.<\/p>\n

100% of the proceeds were put into the hands of affected junior Brahman and Brahman-influence exhibitors, who suffered damage during Hurricane Laura. The recipients included kids who show Simbrah, Brangus, Beefmaster and Brahman cattle.<\/p>\n

The online version of this edition of The Brahman Journal will be available all year long. Please look to the online edition of the magazine for \u201cThank You Letters\u201d from some of the recipients of the relief effort. These letters are truly inspiring and touching.<\/p>\n

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO DONATED AND BID!<\/strong><\/p>\n
