Smithfield Chapter Grants Program:
Smithfield works every day to produce good food, the right way, with respect for its people, animals, community, and planet. As a part of that mission, Smithfield is partnering with local FFA chapters to provide funds centered around increasing diversity, culture, and engagement; breaking down financial barriers by providing chapter operations funds; and supporting community service projects that focus on food insecurity. The program is now open and will accept applications on a rolling basis. Funds will be distributed quarterly.
Please use this link to apply: https://form.jotform.com/240725353613048 it will take teachers straight to the form.
If you are wondering “How much can/should I request?” – there aren’t specific guidelines from Smithfield, so just be intentional about your proposal explanation.

2024 Dave Cain Photo Contest Winners
Congratulations to the following FFA Members on their 2024 Dave Cain Photo contest ranking. I LOVE these photos. We display them in frames on a table in the Lower Level of the Bank of Springfield Center and when they come back to the FFA Center, they hand on our wall, so THANK YOU to these FFA members for helping decorate our Illinois FFA Center office with FFA Talent!
