Tractor Supply Co. has launched its sixth annual FFA Convention T-shirt fundraiser in stores and online nationwide. The fundraiser is in celebration of the 93rd FFA Convention & Expo, which takes place virtually this fall due to the pandemic.
Through Oct. 31, Tractor Supply customers can purchase a limited-edition T-shirt, designed around FFA’s commitment to supporting the future of agriculture.
Campaign proceeds will be donated to the National FFA Organization to be distributed to chapters across the country, funding agricultural programs and activities for FFA youth.
Each year, Tractor Supply designs a special FFA shirt to be sold during the weeks leading up to the convention.
The National FFA Convention & Expo is one of the world’s largest student conventions, intended to celebrate the growth and achievements of the students within the organization.
This year, to ensure the health and safety of the students, chapter leaders, National FFA council members and sponsored guests, the convention will be a virtual event held Oct. 27-29.
“The National FFA Convention & Expo is a highlight for all FFA members, and each year, we look forward to commemorating the event with our exclusive T-shirt,” Christi Korzekwa said.
“Our partnership with the FFA extends back 35 years, and this fundraiser is one of several ways we are proud to support their efforts in developing future agricultural leaders,” she said.
“While this year’s convention might look very different, we hope the 2020 T-shirt helps generate excitement for the FFA and its members, and results in one of our best fundraising years yet,” she said.
The FFA T-shirt is available for $12.99 plus tax at any Tractor Supply store, at TractorSupply.com or via the retailer’s mobile app. The store in Rockdale is at 1500 W. Cameron Ave. (US 79).
Fundraiser donations are distributed among three FFA programs: Gift of Gold, Living to Serve and Alumni Legacy Grants.
