Today, the American Eagle Foundation announced its partnership with D. G. Yuengling & Son, Inc., America’s Oldest Brewery®. Through this partnership, AEF, now in its 34th year, will be supported by Yuengling in its mission of conservation, education, and rehabilitation for the Bald Eagle and other birds of prey.
