The National FFA Alumni & Supporters was created as a form of membership with the primary purpose of supporting and promoting FFA, FFA activities, and agricultural education. Members are committed to three priorities: supporting FFA students, supporting FFA Advisors, and telling the FFA story.
Alumni & Supporters are a fundamental part of the National FFA Organization. FFA advisors and members across the country rely on volunteers to support their chapters through the gifts of time, talent, and resources in order to gain community support and give teachers more time and freedom to do what they do best – teach students.
You do not have to be a former FFA member to support FFA, agricultural education, and the future of agriculture. Members can be parents, grandparents, community members, and sponsors. You have to want to make a difference! If you are proud of FFA and want to help local FFA members acquire knowledge and experience from agricultural education and FFA activities, becoming an adult member is for you!
If you are interested in joining the Three Forks FFA Alumni and Supporters, reach out to Mr. Noyes at tnoyes@threeforks.k12.mt.us. Remember, you do not have to be an FFA Alumni to be in this organization; any background or supporter is welcome! Join today!
Our officer team includes:
President - Gunnar Lahaug (lahauggunnar@gmail.com)
Vice-President - Kelton Jenson
Secretary - Amee Smith
Treasurer - Jennifer Burm
