Private support involves gifts and grants given to the Pennsylvania FFA Foundation by people – alumni and friends, institutions, corporations, foundations, and organizations - who are committed to helping FFA fulfill its mission.
Contributions made to the endowment are invested in a responsible manner. The principal is never spent; however, 5% is utilized each year to support the purpose of the endowment.
Many individuals view their support as a means of accomplishing personal goals, supporting values and beliefs. Some give simply because they view their support as a good investment.
Others value the knowledge and experiences they have received and desire to ensure the same for future generations of students.
Perhaps your motivation is to:
- Remember someone you love or respect by giving in their honor
- Maintain an interest or affinity in a particular program
(i.e. American FFA Degrees) you want to grow and succeed - Demonstrate your leadership and your support for
agricultural education - Diversify your financial or estate planning for philanthropic
tax advantages
All gifts are valuable to the FFA fundraising campaign because they help us remain among the best youth leadership organizations in the nation providing the highest quality education.
