A Learning by Doing Grant provides a financial scholarship for FFA Members, FFA Chapters, and Agricultural Educators to enhance premier leadership, personal growth, and career success. Example projects may include any type of planned Supervised Agricultural Experience project, classroom tools, equipment, curriculum, and teacher training. Financial resources provide additional support to create a positive learning environment and a diverse skillset for our next generation of agricultural leaders.
Grant applications are judged by a group of volunteers including Pennsylvania FFA Foundation Trustees, retired agricultural education instructors, and industry leaders. Applicant names and schools are removed from the application prior to being sent to the judges which allows applications to be judged solely on criteria outlined in the scorecard.
