The iconic FFA blue jacket is a beacon of community and pride. As a part of the FFA Official Dress, it is important that students gain the full experience and benefit of being an FFA member. Through the support of sponsors and donors, FFA has been able to provide blue jackets to deserving members.
PROGRAMS
Culver’s franchises across the nation have the opportunity to sponsor their local chapter(s) by providing a blue jacket to those members that cannot afford one.
Each restaurant will pay $65 to fund the first jacket donated. The remaining fee will be paid by Culver Franchising System, LLC. After the first jacket, the restaurant will pay $130 to fund each blue jacket for the chapter of their choice.
Restaurants can sign up from Feb. 21 – May 31. Jacket recipients will be notified at the start of the new school year.
