The Future Farmers of America (FFA) is a service and education organization which is intended to promote agricultural education in the United States. The organization has been more properly known as the National FFA Organization since 1988, when the organization changed its official name to reflect the shifting nature of American agriculture, which includes everything from organic poultry pasturing to bio fuels. Although many people in the United States associate the FFA with state fairs and livestock shows, there are many more facets to the organization, and in the early 21st century, the FFA began pushing a more broad image, designed to encompass the many facets of American farming. |

Interact is Rotary International’s service club for students ages 12 to 18. Interact clubs are sponsored by individual Rotary clubs, which provide support and guidance, but they are self governing.
Club membership consists of all students, and can draw from the student body of a single school or from two or more schools in the same community.
Each year, Interact clubs complete at least two major community service projects. One of these projects should promote international understanding and goodwill. In addition to serving others, Interact members strive to develop a network of friendships with local and overseas clubs and learn the importance of
Developing leadership skills and personal integrity
Demonstrating helpfulness and respect for others
Understanding the value of individual responsibility and hard work
Advancing international understanding and goodwill.
