  Riley Wells  1/19/2023 7:00:00 AM  
     
 

The last day to order a custom designed Pura Vida bracelet to support the Illinois Foundation FFA is Monday, February 20th.

Bracelets are $8.00 a piece and can be paid for and picked up at one of the following events:

  • State Livestock/Poultry/Horticulture
  • Ag Mech/Parli/Conduct
  • Illinois FFA Center

If you are interested in placing an order, please click here.

Did you know that your FFA Chapter can sell the Illinois Association FFA Foundation Committee’s custom-designed Pura Vida Bracelets to raise funds for your Local Collection Drive? 

Chapters must sell AT LEAST 25 bracelets to receive credit towards their Local Collection Drive.

Once your Chapter is credited for selling a minimum of 25 bracelets, your chapter will be credited $4 for every bracelet you have sold. That said, Chapters that are credited for selling 25 bracelets will be credited $100 for their Local Collection Drive.
