Student Air Rifle Program (SAR) Partners with Weatherby Foundation

January 28, 2019 By Tom McHale

SAR Partners with Weatherby FoundationThe Student Air Rifle Program (SAR) is thrilled to partner with the Weatherby Foundation to implement SAR in Texas.

Student Air Rifle Program logo“We are proud to support SAR and look forward to SAR students participating in shooting sports and related activities well into the future,” noted Ricardo Longoria, Weatherby Foundation President.

“Through the comprehensive SAR curriculum, students get hands-on opportunities to experience target shooting and learn how shooters and hunters drive conservation support,” added Longoria.

“Weatherby Foundation provided SAR with a $20,000 grant used to purchase SAR equipment kits for Texas Schools. The inaugural Texas Basic Air Riflery Instructor Training took place in November near Houston, Texas and resulted in 10 trainers positioned all across Texas. Weatherby Foundation’s support helped facilitate a sustainable coordination framework in Texas with fellow partners, Texas Parks and Wildlife and Texas State Rifle Association Foundation,” mentioned Jake Hindman, President and CEO of SAR.

“We value our partnership with the Weatherby Foundation and are working on expanding SAR in Texas and other states,” noted, Hindman.

About the Weatherby Foundation

Formed in 1988, the Weatherby Foundation’s mission statement is “to educate youth and the non-hunting public on the beneficial role of ethical sport hunting and its contribution to wildlife conservation”.  Each year the Foundation continues to grow its relationship with a variety of organizations that develop and support hands-on educational activities. Weatherby Foundation is a non-profit, tax exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
