Alumni Affliated Membership / Alumni & Supporters Local Chapters

The membership affiliation program is designed to easily mobilize volunteers to support local agricultural education programs and their FFA chapters. This program allows affiliates to provide membership, services, and benefits to an unlimited number of volunteers/supporters for one fee while keeping the rest of their funds right at home for their local programs. This program will also assist the National FFA Alumni in their strategic goal of having an active alumni affiliate in every FFA chapter in the country and dramatically increasing the number of advocates and supporters with time, talent, and resources at the local, state, and national level.

Program Highlights:

Annual fee of $100 per local affiliate (plus state dues that may apply) for the affiliate program providing basic support to all volunteers at the local affiliate.
Annual fee would be waived if the local affiliate has at least 25 life members (as of the end of the preceding membership year).
A minimum of 10 local affiliate members will continue to be in place for the affiliate to be considered active.

What affiliates and their members receive

Ability to use the National FFA tax reporting benefits as a National Alumni affiliate.
Full access to use the National FFA Alumni Ag Career Network and all resources to provide information, house re-sources, report data, report & process membership, search for career opportunities and discover promising practices to grow the affiliate, the local agricultural education program and its members.
Key alumni and FFA Organization updates, information, and all sponsor supported benefits available.
Electronic “New Visions” alumni newsletter and FFA’s “New Horizons” magazine.
New supportive resources for the local alumni affiliate and their members to become stronger advocates.
