The purpose of the National Chapter Award Program is to encourage chapters to develop and improve in three focus areas: Chapter Development, Student Development, and Community Development. Awards are given in each of these three areas in the divisions of bronze, silver and gold. During the second session of the Kansas FFA Convention, the National Chapter Awards for Community Development were awarded.

Chapters receiving these awards have worked hard to positively influence their community. Whether it be teaching the community about agricultural issues and practices, organizing work days to preserve natural resources, or hosting various activities to improve the well-being of the members of the community, these chapters have truly contributed to their communities.
