Wisconsin FFA Foundation Welcomes Mason Gukenberger as Marketing & Events Coordinator
The Wisconsin FFA Foundation officially welcomes Mason Gukenberger as the Marketing and Events Coordination. Mason began working with the Foundation in January and is looking forward to traveling the state to collaborate with Foundation supporters, Team Ag Ed partners, FFA advisors, students, and alumni.
Gukenberger will coordinate marketing and communication strategies to support the Wisconsin FFA Partners including the FFA Foundation, Alumni and Supporters Association, FFA Association, WAAE and the FFA Center. He is responsible for maintaining social media and website content, in keeping with the National FFA Organization’s mission to make a positive difference in the lives of young people by developing their potential for premier leadership, personal growth and career success through agricultural education.
Gukenberger was raised on a farm in central Wisconsin where he developed a deep connection to agriculture and service. In addition to his agriculture and FFA background he also brings to the Foundation marketing and fundraising experience from various leadership roles in other corporate organizations.
"I wouldn’t be who I am today if it wasn’t for FFA. My time with FFA as a student and alumni has developed me into the leader I am today, and it has always been a goal of mine to continue to give back to the amazing organization” says Gukenberger. “The FFA’s partnerships with businesses, organizations, and individuals who invest in the future of agriculture are invaluable and provide countless development opportunities for over 20,000 students."
This year, the Wisconsin FFA Foundation will continue to raise funds to support Wisconsin FFA programs including direct funding to local chapters and individual members, as well as Team Ag Ed. Gukenberger will be assisting the Foundation and FFA Partners in these efforts.
The Wisconsin FFA Foundation, a 501 (c)(3) organization, unites individuals, organizations and companies who share a common interest in the advancement of agriculture and community leadership through FFA. You can support today’s FFA members by supporting the programs that have been core tenets of the FFA: proficiency awards, career development events, state FFA degrees, sectional leadership workshops, scholarships, chapter awards, agri-science fair, state FFA convention and state officer support.
