Tractor Supply Raises $1 Million for FFA Future Leaders

Tractor Supply Company raised more than $1 million dollars during its fifth annual FFA Future Leaders fundraiser, bringing the program’s five-year total to $5 million dollars. The money helps FFA members pursue education and careers in agriculture and related fields. The retailer has partnered with FFA since 1985, contributing more than 27 million dollars to scholarships, grants, educational experiences, and other programs.

Kansas State University student Sage Toews says her scholarship has reduced the need to work long hours to pay for school, allowing more time for leadership and service opportunities. She’s also building relationships that could help her pursue a career in food and agricultural policy.

Tractor Supply says the fundraiser is part of its broader support for FFA, including hands-on learning opportunities and helping students attend the National FFA Convention and Expo. Joe Fell, the company’s vice president of merchandise operations, says customer and community donations directly invest in the future of rural America.
