Culver’s is celebrating National FFA Week by helping to cultivate the next generation of agricultural leaders through its new FFA Ambassador Program, an initiative that allows guests to nominate standout FFA members in their communities to represent Culver’s and their FFA chapter, as well as have the opportunity to earn additional prizes.
The FFA Ambassador Program is the latest chapter in Culver’s longstanding relationship with FFA, the restaurant said in a release. Culver’s partners with the organization through its Thank You Farmers Project, an initiative that aims to advocate for the positive impact of agriculture while investing in agricultural education in order to create a more resilient and sustainable world. Culver’s has donated over $5 million to agricultural causes through the Thank You Farmers Project since its founding.
“The future of agriculture is only as strong as the motivated young people representing the next generation of leadership and advocacy,” Alison Demmer, Culver’s senior marketing and public relations manager and former Wisconsin FFA president, said in a release. “We’re proud to launch the Culver’s FFA Ambassador Program and can’t wait to welcome our first class of Ambassadors to represent FFA, Culver’s and their communities.”
Guests can nominate an FFA member who is doing outstanding work for their chapter and their community in the FFA Ambassador Program. The nominator will answer three questions about why their chosen FFA member should become an FFA Ambassador:
1. Why would your nominee be a good representative for their FFA chapter, their community and Culver’s?
2. Why does your nominee deserve to become a Culver’s FFA Ambassador?
3. Does your nominee’s FFA chapter work with a Culver’s restaurant, and if so, which one? (Optional)
