Glenpaen Merino stud will host its 20th annual sale on October 14.
Stud principal Rod Miller along with his wife Sue and four children decided that they want to make their sale extra special this year by giving something back to the community.
Mrs Miller said to start the sale off, the proceeds of lot one, would be donated to the Wimmera Cancer Centre.
“There were no disputes when deciding to donate to the Wimmera Cancer Centre,” she said.
“As a family we have all been touched in some way with this illness, whether it be immediate family or very special friends and we are doing this in memory of those we have lost to cancer, or are battling the illness at present.
“The cancer centre is close to our hearts and is something that Horsham and the wider Wimmera community will benefit from.”
Construction on the new centre will start next year.
About 100 horn and poll merinos will be on offer at the ram sale.
“We are looking forward to sharing this special day with all our buyers and prospective buyers and hope we can achieve a great result for the Wimmera Cancer Centre,” Mrs Miller said.
