The mission of the WRCA Foundation’s Crisis Fund is to provide financial and other assistance to working ranch cowboys and their families who are suffering significant hardship and who are not otherwise able to provide for their immediate needs.

A working ranch cowboy is defined as any person, male or female, deriving a significant portion of his or her income from taking care of cattle on a cattle ranch. Day workers are included.
