WAWG
Participate in the Legislative Action Fund Fundraiser
The Washington Association of Wheat Growers’ (WAWG) Legislative Action Fund (LAF) helps to provide funding for the organization’s lobbying efforts, especially in Olympia and Washington, D.C. It has never been more critical to have wheat growers’ voices heard. WAWG needs your generous contributions to continue to tell wheat’s story and advocate on growers’ behalf on issues such as farm bill programs, carbon taxes, labor concerns, tax preferences, infrastructure needs and more. If you donate $20 or more, your name will be put in a drawing for a chance to win some fabulous prizes donated by Adams County, Columbia County, Benton County, Douglas County, Franklin County, Grant County, Klickitat/Yakima County, Lincoln County, Whitman County, and Walla Walla County at our state banquet, scheduled for Wednesday, Nov. 20, 2024.
We’ll be giving away nearly $1,000 worth of prizes, including a Pit Boss wood pellet grill and smoker, popular electronics, gift cards and more. You don’t have to be present to win.
*Note: If you have already donated $20 or more to LAF with your membership renewal form, you have automatically been entered in the drawing.
