NYSSA – The Nyssa FFA chapter recently received a $2,000 grant from the Wilco-FFA Grants Program that has been used to buy a stock trailer to transport livestock and other projects.
Wilco is a farmer-owned cooperative headquartered in Mt. Angel.
When the Oregon FFA lost state funding in 2012, Wilco teamed up with several other ag-related vendors to privately fund the Oregon FFA Foundation.
This started the FFA Forever campaign, an ongoing effort to raise money and public awareness for Oregon and Washington FFA chapters.
Since its inception, FFA Forever has raised over $709,000 through hosting events and fundraising activities.
