MONTGOMERY, Ala. – Jackson Haynes was awarded the Tagged for Greatness Scholarship at the Alabama Cattlemen’s Foundation (ACF) Scholarship Banquet held Friday, May 1, in Montgomery. Jackson is the son of Ben and Whitney Haynes of Cullman.
Haynes will graduate from Fairview High School and plans to attend Auburn University to pursue a degree in Biological and Agricultural Technology Management. Haynes was one of 165 students awarded more than $162,250 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.
