Grand Island, NE — In response to the catastrophic wildfires that have swept across Nebraska, Hornady® is proud to announce a t-shirt fundraising campaign - "Nebraska Strong," benefiting the Nebraska Cattlemen’s Disaster Relief Fund.

Recent wildfires have burned nearly 1 million acres of Nebraska ranchland, an area larger than the state of Rhode Island. The fires have heavily impacted the Nebraska Sandhills, one of the most productive and globally recognized beef-producing regions in the world.

The destruction extends far beyond grazing land. Ranchers have suffered significant losses including fences, hay supplies, buildings, equipment, and livestock infrastructure. Compounding the crisis, Nebraska has been enduring years of drought, making recovery even more difficult. The long-term effects of this disaster will be felt for years to come.

"As a Nebraska-based company, this hits close to home for all of us,” said Jason Hornady, Vice President at Hornady. "These ranchers are not only our neighbors, but they play a critical role in feeding our country. We felt a deep responsibility to stand alongside them and provide support during this incredibly challenging time,” he added.

The limited-edition t-shirts are now available for purchase, with 100% of profits donated directly to the Nebraska Cattlemen’s Disaster Relief Fund. The fund provides vital assistance to ranchers working to rebuild and recover from natural disasters.

Supporters can purchase shirts and learn more about the initiative here.
