UNH CREAM

UNH CREAM CREAM, Cooperative Real Education in Agricultural Management, is a student run cooperative that operates and manages a portion of UNH's dairy herd.

CREAM is a yearlong course that gives students the opportunity to gain hands on experience in working with the dairy cows. Each fall, the herd is passed on to a new group of students with the help of a transition team of student advisors, as well as dairy center personnel, and faculty advisors. The class is currently comprised of ~25 students and several advisors. With regard to the herd, CREAM's

mission is to provide a clean, comfortable environment for our cows and to manage them in such a way as to maintain a healthy, contented herd, which will produce high quality milk in an economical and sustainable manner.

My name is Kristina Mileski and I am a junior Animal Science major TODAY is the day to support CREAM especially since UNH will add an equal portion of the $50K in bonus funds to your gift (can be as little as $3.00). This is an incredible opportunity for us and could fund many projects like genomic testing, purchasing stethoscopes, tablets to monitor SmaXtec boluses, and diagnostics using the New Hampshire Veterinary Diagnostic Labs.

Our class is a big supporter of the agricultural industry and would love the opportunity to do more with our own cows. Any support would be greatly appreciated.

Happy 603 day! For the first 1,500 donors who haven’t already donated to this year’s challenge – if you give online today in a total amount containing the numerals 6, 0, and 3, you will receive a $50 bonus added to your gift designations!

Please help; we have been challenged to meet 30 donors by the end of the day and are falling behind with only 8! All proceeds are dedicated to making our cows happy and healthy and educating future agricultural leaders!

We've had a few donors to the 2025 UNH 603 challenge on the first day.

Last year CREAM had 55 donors. This is called the 603 CHALLENGE, as there is a bit of competition and fun in the college to CHALLENGE people give to specific programs they really believe in.

This fund raising activity is one I really like because small or modest donations make a big difference, as there are matching funds and bonuses.

Last year it helped CREAM students put on an end of the year banquet, do a great field trip and genomically test our cows (which helps ID the best genetics and match them to bulls for breeding).

I hope you will join me and my student Kristina who is leading this years effort in supporting this unique educational program.

The 2024-2025 CREAM class is doing a pasta fund raiser. There are all sorts of pastas, with themes related to sports, the upcoming holiday, animals and more. I ordered some of the holiday themed ones for everyone in my family as stocking stuffers.
