For over 96 years, the California FFA has been positively shaping students' lives by helping them develop skills for premier leadership, personal growth, and career success through the state's agricultural education program. As an intra-curricular organization, the California FFA engages more than 104,000 members across 360 high school and middle school chapters throughout the state. 

In every sector of agriculture, there is a growing demand for innovative thinkers, skilled professionals, and entrepreneurs who can address the challenges of today while preparing for the opportunities of tomorrow. FFA members are ready and able to meet that demand, but we need your support. 

Supporting the California FFA on Big Day of Giving will help us build a brighter future for agriculture, youth, and our communities. After all, creating a brighter future requires expertise from every field!
