The Tucson Rodeo Foundation aids the youth of Southern Arizona through building community partnerships to create scholarships, grants, loan programs, assisting in youth livestock auctions, and junior rodeos. TRF is also working to establish endowments and scholarships to aid youth in their continuing educational pursuits in agriculture and veterinary medicine. Currently TRF is working with the Pima County 4-H and their rabbit program and will be working with the local chapters of the FFA. TRF was a buyer at the 2024 Pima County Fair including buying the Grand Champion Lamb.
