๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’› Thank you for supporting California FFA on the Big Day of Giving! ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ’™

Yesterday, the California FFA community came together in an incredible way. Thanks to the generosity of donors across the state and match funding from Alexandre Family Farm, FFA members will have even more opportunities to grow as leadersโ€”through SAE projects, CDE teams, LDE competitions, and agriscience pathways.

Every gift makes a differenceโ€”and yesterday, each donor made a big one. If you didn't get a chance to donate yesterday, there's still time! Visit bigdayofgiving.org/organization/CaliforniaFFAFoundation

Audree Callens of Brawley FFA has developed that discipline for yearsโ€”raising sheep and goats, then applying that knowledge to livestock judging contests.

Today, it shows up in daily habits: studying, practicing, refining reasons, and learning from every critique. Even after tough contests, she makes adjustments and shows up againโ€”๐ญ๐ก๐š๐ญโ€™๐ฌ ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐œ๐ข๐ฉ๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐ž.

Early mornings. Long hours. Doing the job right, even when no one is watching. That work ethic is what sets FFA members apart.

For 2026 State Star Farmer Madysen Dietz of El Capitan FFA, that lesson shows up daily. Through her sheep SAE, sheโ€™s building pride in a job well done and excellence that lasts far beyond the blue jacket.๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’›

Some lessons in FFA arenโ€™t learned in a classroom. Theyโ€™re built through consistency and commitment.

Think back to your SAE: early mornings, late nights, and the pride of finishing something with your name on it. Thatโ€™s where responsibility takes root. ๐ŸŒฑ

For Adrian Sรกnchez Venegas of Madera FFA, every ag mechanics order is a promise to reliably deliver quality and stand behind his work.

Students across California are building that same sense of responsibility through SAEs, leadership, and CDEsโ€”๐›๐ฎ๐ญ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ฌ๐ž ๐ž๐ฑ๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ๐ข๐ž๐ง๐œ๐ž๐ฌ ๐๐จ๐งโ€™๐ญ ๐ก๐š๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ž๐ง ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ.

As the sun rises on the Big Day of Giving, so do California FFA membersโ€”already at work, already building their future.

From early mornings in the barn to sharpening skills for CDEs and LDEs, FFA is a foundation for the real world. Through supervised agricultural experiences (SAEs), competitions, and agriscience pathways, students gain the discipline, confidence, and dedication that carry far beyond the classroom.

An investment in these students is an investment in character, in leadership, and in the future theyโ€™re buildingโ€”in and out of the blue jacket.

When rising costs threatened his progress, Baylor Bloom of Gustine FFA adaptedโ€”finding creative ways to grow his almond and walnut harvesting agribusiness SAE and proving that resourcefulness is a skill built through FFA. ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿšœ

Todayโ€™s members learn to adapt to challenges and think on their feet through supervised agricultural experiences (SAEs), proficiencies, career development events (CDEs), and moreโ€”skills that last far beyond the blue jacket. ๐Ÿ’™

When you support California FFA tomorrow on Big Day of Giving, youโ€™re encouraging, recognizing, and investing in FFA members who are building skills, like adaptability, that we need in our youth. ๐Ÿ’ช
