Giving Tuesday is November 30th this year. Each year, California FFA Foundation designates Giving Tuesday to raise funds for blue jackets for California FFA students who may not be able to afford one. Your $80 donation provides a jacket and a tie/scarf to a California FFA student member. Thanks to a match by Blue Diamond Growers of $25,000, every dollar you donate gets doubled.
In a year that jackets were not necessarily required, California Association FFA staff still wanted to provide students access to jackets. The discussion led to offering all 338 chapters the opportunity to apply for five chapter jackets. Agricultural teachers throughout California enthusiastically welcomed the opportunity to participate in the program. Over 630 jackets were provided to 111 chapters in California.
