John Deere Donates $1M To National FFA Organization
Building on 80 years of partnership, John Deere announced a donation last week of $1 million to the National FFA Organization. The donation will support the growth of future leaders, feed agriculture's talent pipeline, and honor the organization's community service efforts. John Deere is the longest-running sponsor of the National FFA Organization and continues to advocate for FFA, its members, and advisors.
"For more than 80 years, they've been unwavering in their support and continue to see the potential leaders in each one of our members and our advisors," noted National FFA Foundation President Molly Ball.
In addition to supporting the organization financially, John Deere also has many employees who are former FFA members or supporters of the organization. As a result, they have one of the country's largest FFA Alumni & Supporters chapters. The chapter will be involved during FFA Week, offering members opportunities to participate in activities promoting FFA and supporting local chapters.
