BLUE JACKET LEGACY PROGRAM
The Official Dress jacket was adopted in 1933. The FFA corduroy jacket is an article of faith, honor and pride. The jacket unifies members in a long-standing tradition and reminds them that they are part of something larger than themselves.
The Arizona Agricultural Education/FFA Foundation kicked off the first year of the FFA Jacket Grant Program in 2019 and have since awarded 555 jackets to students from across Arizona.
- 2019 Awarded 80 FFA Jackets
- 2020 Awarded 96 FFA Jackets
- 2021 Awarded 109 FFA Jackets
- 2022 Awarded 166 FFA Jackets
- 2023 Awarded 104 FFA Jackets
We encourage you to contribute as we work towards reaching our goal of 150 or more jackets gifted to FFA members in Arizona for the January 2024 Gala.
Support the Program

TESTIMONIAL
"One of the best days in the life of an Agriculture Teacher is when a student zips up their jacket for the very first time. Sometimes, there can be different barriers for why a student cannot purchase a jacket, most often being the financial burden. Through this program generously sponsored through the foundation by generous donors, we were able to provide a very deserving student with their very own FFA jacket, a memory that they will remember forever."
