For 17 years, Zoetis has proudly partnered with veterinarians and animal health distributors to nurture the next generation of agricultural leaders through its Industry Support Program. From Feb. 1 through April 30, 2025, customers may designate a portion of sales from eligible Zoetis Cattle and Equine products to their local chapters of the National FFA Organization.

“We owe the year-over-year success of the Industry Support Program to our customers,” said Kristin Kasselman, Senior Vice President, Head of U.S. Livestock and Equine, Zoetis. “FFA chapters use program funds in numerous ways, including covering travel costs for conferences, funding scholarships, and supporting community projects. Zoetis is proud to offer a unique way for customers to make a difference in their own communities, and support the future leaders of agriculture.”

In 2024, the program raised over $375,000 with 689 FFA chapters benefiting from the contributions. A significant majority of participating chapters said the Industry Support Program provided crucial assistance for defraying travel costs and fees associated with member activities.

“This funding allows FFA members to access opportunities and experiences that will serve them well as they develop leadership skills and prepare for agriculture careers,” added Molly Ball, President of the National FFA Foundation. “Zoetis’ Industry Support Program exemplifies how businesses can make a tangible impact on local FFA chapters, opening doors for young leaders to develop essential skills and prepare for impactful careers in agriculture.”

The 2025 Industry Support Program started Feb. 1, 2025, and will conclude April 30, 2025. Zoetis customers have until May 5, 2025, to enroll and designate their preferred FFA chapters.
