Laura Kyser was awarded the Tagged For Greatness Scholarship at the Alabama Cattlemen’s Foundation (ACF) Scholarship Banquet held Friday, May 2, in Montgomery, AL. Laura is the daughter of Townsend and Kelly Kyser of Greensboro. Kyser will graduate from Southern Academy and plans to attend Auburn University to pursue a degree in Nursing. The honoree was one of 160 students awarded $152,750 in scholarships by the ACF, which serves to engage in educational and scientific activities to improve the beef cattle industry in Alabama and educate youth on the importance of beef cattle in Alabama. The ACF provides the opportunity to make tax deductible donations for the educational work of the foundation and is largely funded by the sale of the “Cowboy Tag” vanity license plate. Throughout the year, the ACF supports numerous organizations and events which help to educate and train future generations of the livestock industry. The ACF has awarded scholarship money each year to Alabama youth with more than $1.5 million being awarded to date.
