Aroostook County FFA Help Alleviate Homelessness, Food Insecurity
Aroostook County members of the Maine FFA Association (formerly known as “Future Farmers of America”) pitched in enthusiastically to help alleviate homelessness and food insecurity in their communities.
Under a “State Day of Service” grant from the National FFA Organization, and with an additional $2,000 community grant awarded by Walmart Presque Isle, along with in kind donations from some local retailers, Maine FFA student members and their Chapter FFA Advisors worked to organize, pick-up and deliver support to a number of different local community service agencies.
Community service participants included the Sister Mary O’Donnell Emergency Homeless Shelter in Presque Isle, the Dalgren-Skidgel Farm of Hope, Perham Food Cupboard, Washburn Food Pantry and the Presque Isle office of the Aroostook County Action Program (ACAP), which contributed an educational outreach component to the project.
