Keeping Savanna's spirit alive by lifting up local youth

We turn community generosity into real opportunity for young people in Guadalupe County and beyond. Through fundraising events that celebrate Savanna's love of county fairs, good food, and bringing people together, we support youth livestock programs and encourage the next generation.

Every dollar raised, every hour volunteered, and every connection made honors her legacy of kindness and enthusiasm.

Who We Are

Sweet Savanna Hog Wild Inc. began as a way to remember Savanna—a young woman from Adkins, Texas, whose love of animals, county fairs, and her community left a lasting mark on everyone she knew.

When her family and friends came together to honor her memory, they didn't want just a quiet memorial. They wanted something that captured her energy, her generosity, and her belief that young people deserve encouragement and opportunity.

That's how our nonprofit was born. We organize "hog wild" fundraising events—lively gatherings full of good food, music, and the kind of warmth Savanna brought to every room. The funds we raise go directly to supporting local youth, especially those involved in the Guadalupe County Youth Livestock & Homemakers Show and similar programs.
