GFB announces 2024 Federation Ambassador Team

Posted on February 22, 2024 6:57 PM

The GFB Federation Ambassadors kicked off their year with a weekend orientation on February 2-3 at the Georgia Farm Bureau (GFB) Home Office in Macon. Promoting GFB as a membership organization is the ambassadors’ main purpose. 

During their orientation, the ambassadors worked on team-building exercises, met GFB staff, and learned about all things Farm Bureau. They also created a mission statement for their year of service: To engage and inspire Georgia’s current and future agriculturalists while equipping them with the information and resources GFB provides.  

The ambassadors will promote GFB through a variety of member recruitment, public relations and brand awareness campaigns. Ambassadors will work alongside GFB staff and industry professionals on projects and events throughout Georgia. Their year will conclude at the 2024 GFB Annual Convention on Jekyll Island. 

Federation Ambassadors are chosen for their interpersonal skills, passion for ag advocacy, innovative thinking and overall enthusiasm. To serve as an ambassador, candidates must be over the age of 18 when selected, commit to the hours of service and present an exceptional application. They must maintain good academic standing while in service to the program.
