About the Program
Georgia FFA is the third largest FFA program in the United States supporting over 80,125 students in over 400 chapters statewide.
The Georgia FFA Foundation is dedicated to supporting members’ growth as leaders and developing their careers in the mathematical, business, and science sectors pertaining agriculture.
The foundation sponsors educational opportunities, scholarships, and Career and Leadership Development Events (CDEs & LDEs) for Georgia FFA members. Our goal is to provide financial resources to prepare students to be successful in their field, while learning skills they will use for a lifetime.
Mission
The purpose of the Georgia FFA Foundation is to provide financial resources for Georgia FFA members to participate in competitions, events, and conventions. As the future of agriculture, preparing for their success starts today.
Vision
Our goal is to be a financially sustainable source to all members in Georgia FFA and beyond. Any member, and every chapter will have the ability to live out their goals of becoming a leader while achieving career success.
