Who is honorary membership conferred upon?

Honorary membership in the FFA is conferred upon individuals who have rendered outstanding service to the organization or to agricultural education. This honor recognizes those who have made significant contributions to the growth and development of FFA or who have positively impacted the lives of students in agricultural education. The criteria for honorary membership emphasize the value of service and leadership rather than wealth, personal status, or previous membership in FFA.

While individuals in other options may possess valuable qualities or experiences, honorary membership specifically celebrates exceptional contributions and dedication to the mission and goals of FFA. This focus ensures that the recognition is meaningful and relevant to the organization's values and objectives.
