Fuel Up For FFA: CVA Supports Future Ag Leaders During National FFA Week

(York, NE) Central Valley Ag (CVA) is proud to announce the return of the Fuel up For FFA during National FFA Week, February 21-28, 2026. During this time, CVA will donate 5 cents from every gallon of fuel purchased at CVA fuel sites with a CVA fuel card. CVA will donate to support the Nebraska and Kansas FFA Foundations. Through this support to the next generation of agricultural leaders, CVA continues its commitment to strengthen communities and the future of agriculture.

“FFA students represent the future of agriculture, energy, and rural leadership,” said Jeff Ingalls, senior vice president of energy at CVA. “When customers fuel up at CVA locations, they’re directly helping provide opportunities for young people who will drive our industry forward.”

“Central Valley Ag’s Fuel Up program is helping drive the future of agriculture by investing in the next generation of leaders,” said Beth Gaines, Executive Director of the Kansas FFA Foundation. “We are deeply grateful for CVA’s continued support of Kansas FFA and their commitment to growing young leaders across Kansas. During National FFA Week, we encourage CVA’s member-customers to fuel up with purpose—knowing that every fill is helping 14,000 students gain the skills and confidence they need to lead our industry and communities forward.”
