NEW PARIS — The National Trail MVCTC FFA Chapter received a grant to fund a program designed to help Preble County.
The Ohio FFA Foundation awarded the grant to the National Trail MVCTC FFA Chapter to support building sustainable relationships and programs that will benefit Ohio communities for years to come.
After FFA chapters submitted project proposals to the Ohio FFA Foundation, a total of 19 chapters received grants ranging from $1,000 to $4,000. As one of the grant recipients, the National Trail MVCTC FFA Chapter will work in collaboration with local food pantries and will provide food to local families. Members of the National Trail-MVCTC FFA Chapter will assist their local food pantries during the Thanksgiving holiday season by creating and handing out “Bags of Hope.” Each bag includes ingredients and recipes for two casserole meals. The project will be completed by March 2025.
The Ohio FFA Foundation’s Chapter Success Grants program is made possible by support from Heritage Cooperative, Ohio Department of Agriculture and Trillium Farms.
