Jake Rogers, Vice President of Insurance at FCS Financial, recently won $500 for the Brookfield FFA Chapter at the Farmers Mutual Hail Insurance Booth during the AgriBank insurance conference in Kansas City, Missouri. Rogers earned the prize money by achieving the fastest time in a remote-controlled tractor race.
Rogers, who has been with FCS Financial for eight years, is passionate about supporting youth in agriculture. “I am so proud to be able to give back to the Brookfield FFA Chapter,” said Rogers. “This organization does great things for young people interested in agriculture, and I am happy to help them in any way I can.”
The Brookfield FFA Chapter is a youth organization that provides students with opportunities to develop leadership skills, learn about agriculture, and compete in career development events. The chapter has 83 members and is led by advisor Jessica Dobrzenski.
“We are so grateful to Jake for his generous donation,” said Jessica Dobrzenski. “This money will help us provide our members with more opportunities to learn and grow.”
The donation will be used to help offset the cost of attending the State FFA Convention in April.
