Illinois Foundation FFA is exceptionally grateful for your efforts of the 2022-2023 Local Collection Drive!

• Totals as of Sunday, April 30, 2023

  • Local Collection Drive -  $375,069.02

  • State at Large  - $74,126.91

Your generosity is greatly appreciated!

Thank you for all your interest and support of the 2022-2023 Local Collection Drive. We appreciate your time and dedication to this very important task.

*** Teachers  *** 

The Foundation Board reapproved last year’s hopper fund proposal, which means that if your Local Collection Drive total for the 2022-2023 school year is $1,500.00, you will earn anywhere between $75.00 and $225 to be used for Chapter registrations for the following four Illinois FFA activities:

• State FFA Convention

• Illinois FFA Leadership Camp

• Ground Zero Conference (formally 212 Conference)

• BUILD Conference

Hopper funds are calculated after the end of the Foundation fiscal year, which also coincides with the end of the year’s collection drive, which is June 30th.

Haven’t made a donation yet? Don’t worry! All donations made by June 30, 2023, will be included in your chapter’s 2022-2023 Local Collection Drive total and thus increase the amount of hopper funds your chapter receives.
