Kansas FFA Foundation

A great feature from National FFA on Kansas FFA Foundation Trustee Jackie Mundt.

Check out how FFA impacted her life and how she continues to give back to youth in agriculture. 💙💛

The lessons learned in FFA don’t end after graduation. 💙🌾

Past national president Jackie Mundt credits her experiences in FFA with helping shape her career, her leadership and her passion for serving others. Today, she continues advocating for agriculture, mentoring young people and helping rural communities thrive through her work and volunteer service.
“FFA built the foundation that allowed me to go on to succeed,” Mundt says.
