BUILDING WIN - WIN PARTNERSHIPS FOR TENNESSEE FFA
Erickson USA's (E-USA) objective is to build win-win partnerships between "energized" FFA Chapters and excited Dodge dealers in Tennessee. Through Erickson USA's Hometown Scholarship Program, these partnerships will ultimately yield thousands of dollars to Tennessee FFA.
PROGRAM DISCIPLINES
One-hundred percent of the donations generated throughout Tennessee will go directly to the Tennessee FFA. We are very proud to offer a program to Tennessee FFA where 100% of the donated funds stay within the organization. Again, it's important to note that the suggested donation made by each community member is not shared with any vendor. Dodge dealers have partnered this year with Hometown Scholarship Program to cover administrative costs, promotional support and the truck giveaway. As mentioned above, E-USA's objective is to introduce a partnering dealer to every FFA desiring to participate in the 2007 Tennessee program. There will be no cost passed on to Tennessee FFA or it's chapters for this service. E-USA will be responsible for 100% of these partner development costs. One-hundred percent of the program support materials are also offered at no charge to Tennessee FFA and their chapters. The E-USA Area Program Administrator (APA) will make arrangements to cover the support materials. These support materials include donation tickets, dealer and FFA program banners, and dealer and FFA training manuals/supplies, sample PR releases, access to the program website and program support via a toll free customer service line. One-hundred percent value back to hometown donors. The program is not only designed to deliver 100% of community donations directly to FFA, but to reward each donor with a free T-shirt. It is E-USA's goal to offer a T-shirt that will be valued at $7.50 ($2.50 more than the suggested donation of $5.00). All costs related to the Tshirt given to the hometown donor is also offered at no charge to the Tennessee FFA and it's chapters. Additionally, the donor tickets are eligible for a drawing for a 2008 Dodge Ram Mega Cab Truck to be given away in December exclusively to a Tennessee FFA supporter.
