Statement Of Purpose: FFA

For my Junior year I was elected Chapter Treasurer and continued to be active in every event with my chapter. My Junior year I placed in numerous FFA events, including first place in Section Prepared Public Speaking and first place in District Veterinary Medicine Proficiencies. Regardless of those awards I feel that my biggest achievement was that I helped a younger FFA member succeed at public speaking and believe that she could be a meaningful contributor to the FFA, the school, the community, and agriculture.

Promoting FFA is something am always doing. I am always looking for kids that are interested in joining FFA and telling them about my experiences in it. For example, Last year I helped put together four middle school horse judging teams. I gave them the information they needed to study, explained why it would be beneficial, and told them how much fun they would have.

FFA is a program that I can express who I really am and not be ashamed or embarrassed or before even judged. FFA made me begin to realize that I can help my community and make it great. I would always get all these ideas to do servicing learning. I have this awesome idea of doing Earth Week. It is the week of 18th to 22nd and all week is activities related to earth. I plan to be fundraising all week so we may have a great start to paying for Africa. My goal is to get $12,500 and I believe I will reach my goal and nothing may get in the way. The trip cost five thousand dollars and once we are done fundraising for the week, I plan to split it with everyone who is going to Africa. Now you may be asking what as this improved me as a person? Well, I have so many ideas for people to get involved with the community even if they are not in FFA and make a team and make the goal happen. All because of FFA, I stopped having a fear of public speaking. I would just avoid going up in front of the group of people. FFA gave me the skill to teach kids

Encouraging and inspiring young minds have always been one of my favorite activities. In the past 4 years, I have had the opportunity to influence and teach new and upcoming FFA members. Such a contingency has been a responsibility not taken lightly by myself. Not only have I been teaching, I have. been learning alongside them. These young adults have taught me how to be a better leader and educator.

I have been a member of the Albert Lea FFA for five years. I have taken just about every opportunity to come my way from this program. I have participated in dairy cattle evaluation, general livestock, meat evaluation, and small animal care contests in the last 5 years. I attended Greenhand day, as well as SGLC and SLCCL the last three summers. I am proud to say I have been the top fruit sale seller the last 3 years as well. My proudest moments in FFA have been while serving as Historian in 2014 and President in 2015-2016. I led almost all of our club's activities as our advisor was on health leave. I have attended State and National Convention for 3 years also. I worked and organized our county fair food stand, while exhibiting animals at

Texas A&M Corpus Christi’s location as well as the atmosphere attracted me to the campus. I grew up in a small town and when I visited the campus I felt at home. I was in awe when I toured the nursing department and observed the demonstrations. I would like to apply for the biomedical science, nursing or health science program and pursue a career as a Physician Assistant.

For example the Fall and Spring meat sales, our special olympics livestock show, Our Pancake breakfast, and are Owasso FFA Invitational livestock show. In the fall and spring of every year our chapter has around three fundraisers. These fundraisers included out fall, and spring meat sales, and our annual pancake breakfast. In this past year in meat sales alone we raised about $12,000 and earned $4,000 in return. Some of our other ways to participate would be our Owasso Invitational and out special olympic livestock shows. Our Owasso invitational show is 3 days long, a day for each breed of animal we show. Our chapter shows Cattle, sheep, and pigs. This show usually has chapters in out general North East Area of Oklahoma. Our next event is out special olympic livestock show, Our livestock show includes all of the Special needs kids in our North Eastern Region (Mainly). This event lets us show these kids what it's like to take care of an animal like a

Education is a very important aspect to many people. For me, getting a well-rounded education will help me reach my lifetime goal of being happy and bringing that happiness to people by helping them. The spark of motivation came in a very unusual way. It happened when taking the mandatory Chemistry class sophomore year of high school. This class was interesting and eye-opening to me because it provided a different look on life. I knew after completing the class that I wanted to pursue a career in the medical and science field. Texas A&M University is my top choice school because I know that attending this school will give me the best education and it will also help me reach my goals in the future.

My involvement in the FFA has given me many opportunities for service including being involved in the Farm Bureau's Farm Field Days in Utah County at Harward Farms where the local FFA chapters help teach second graders about agriculture. At Snow College with the Agriculture Club that hosts the FFA Field, club members help FFA Advisors with directing a mock Career Development Events contest for students. For my Human Development and Into to Education classes I helped students in a Sixth Grade class at Mt. Pleasant Elementary with Math and Science questions they had during class time.

When thinking of what my unique qualities can contribute to the community at Florida Gulf Coast University, my thought was to study the university in its entirety. Florida Gulf Coast focuses on its national prominence in undergraduate studies. Its main objective is continuing to pursue academic excellence, promote environmental sustainability, and valuing their public service. My aspiration is being given the opportunity to contribute each of my strong qualities to the university, in helping them to continuously strive for excellence.

On this very day, I have graduated from Eureka High School. With hard work and determination, I was able to graduate in the top ten of my class. Throughout my high school years, I was apart of National Honor Society, Golf, Basketball and Softball. Being a member of the National Honor Society has allowed me partake in community service opportunities. Giving back to others is a key aspect in becoming a selfless person, which I have learned

The first thing I did this summer was go on a trip to Washington D.C. with the FFA. It was an awesome experience. I was able to see most of the monuments and some museums. You could live in Washington D.C. your whole life and still not see everything there. While I was there I was able to meet so many awesome people from all over the U.S. I made so many friends that I still keep in touch with today. I’ve been able to do so many things within the FFA

Hi my name is Briana I'm 18 years old majoring in psychology. I am working towards my AA degree here at BC, I plan on attending Florida International University right after. I speak 3 different languages fluently, my favorite show at the moment is game of thrones. On my free time I enjoy playing the piano

There is a program that I am involved in called FLO Chicago (Future Leaders Of Chicago) in the program we traveled to different communities , and I was able to see the lack of help that noticed was witnessed all of the injustice. I decided to help people in a didn't way there are a lot of nurses and a lot of doctors in the world but without the right ammunition a lot of hospitals and corporations can’t succeed. I noticed that the southside of Chicago lacks on hospitals different essential facilities, and I want to be able to offer that to people. After college I want to be able to manage a hospital, and I would like to open up facilities where people in need can get help and resources to help them in whatever problems they might have

That pride lead me to becoming Student Body Business Manager. In this position, I had the wonderful opportunity to organize and run SSHS’s “Giving it Back,” a fundraising for a family in need. I, along with my fellow officers, spent countless hours finding a family, getting businesses to donate, selling raffle tickets for a gun raffle, doing Miracle Minutes at sports games, and finishing it off with an auction at a school assembly. This years was the most successful ever and it’s all thanks to the communities involvement and support. One of the most eye opening experiences of my life was being able to travel to a Nicaraguan school. Their school was barely a building, but I know they are putting the books, pencils, crayons, and paper to good
