24 Hours of giving for future ag leaders!

National FFA Week spreads awareness about the mission of FFA and its impact on the education of middle and high school students across the country. For the eighth year in a row, individuals will have an opportunity to step up and support FFA on this Give FFA Day.

This 24-hour fundraiser campaign gives FFA alumni, parents, corporate partners and supporters a change to give back. For last year’s Give FFA Day, the FFA community raised $440,385.

“This years goal is to raise about $850,000 to represent our growing membership. But the funds that will be raised during this day will go to alot of programs that support members,” National FFA Eastern Region Vice President, Gracie Murchy.
