About Us
So - what exactly is a "Boo Boo Cow" ?
Ashtyn “Boo Boo” was quite simply my miracle cow. She was a twin, born to our Miss Pooh on September 6, 2008. *Ashtyn* & *Rachel* were then named in honor of the neighborhood girls who alerted my husband to the calves births, and provided much needed assistance at the time. Sadly, Boo Boo was paralyzed giving birth to her first calf on April 10, 2010. After losing her calf to the trauma, she was left immobile, was pecked on by buzzards and we were told she would never stand, walk or give birth again. I promised myself if she survived, I would find a way to pay it forward.
Our great~niece would visit and ask to go see “the boo boo cow”, and after sitting on her knees during 4 long weeks of love and care, our Boo Boo Cow arose and stood again. She ultimately gave us a beautiful calf, Magic, on July 10, 2011. At that time, I was the co-chair of the Business Women's Council for the Port Orange-South Daytona Chamber of Commerce and our charity for Christmas was donating sweatshirts to a couple of schools. I quickly learned every school has a dedicated space where they keep clothes for children in need. That particular year was unusually cold, increasing demand for clean, warm sweatshirts. I decided then to create a charitable organization to donate sweatshirts for vulnerable children, and the Boo Boo Cow Foundation was formed.
Six more of Boo Boo Cow’s calves followed Magic. While our Boo Boo Cow left us a few years ago, her name lives on, and we believe we have made her proud! Please help us in our efforts to continue to reach local school children most in need. For every $6 donated, we can provide a new sweatshirt (up to a $34 retail value) for a child in need.
