Decades of Diligence — Stevenson Recaps American Angus Association Fiscal Standing

Decades of diligence from previous leadership have set up today's American Angus Association to be in strong financial standing. That's according to Darrell Stevenson, who just wrapped up his year as treasurer of the Association.“The American Angus Association, plus the four entities, worked well within our budget and we showed profits in each entity. Just to touch on that a little bit, we did see considerable growth this year with our investment portfolio,” Stevenson says, recapping the previous fiscal year.Stevenson was elected Association vice president at the 2025 Annual Convention of Delegates. He says member feedback, specifically from the recent membership survey, will continue to drive priorities in the upcoming year. “That feedback from the membership is what needs to drive us daily, weekly, anyway on setting forth those strategic plans … If there was anything that really came out of this, [it] was an appreciation for the true strength of our breed, and that is diversity. Diversity in cattle, diversity in opinions,” he says. “I am just grateful for the opportunity to be able to contribute on some of these decisions.”Visit AngusJournal.net for more and to subscribe.
