Georgia Junior Beef Futurity

Georgia Junior Beef Futurity centers its work on supporting Georgia students who are active in youth livestock and agricultural leadership programs. Its scholarship activity is tied directly to participation in the Georgia Junior Beef Futurity and serves high school seniors in Georgia who are members of FFA or 4-H with a steer or heifer entered in the Futurity. That focus places the organization at the intersection of agricultural youth development, livestock exhibition, and postsecondary advancement.

The organization’s scholarship program connects Futurity participation with education beyond high school. Eligible students may pursue a professional certification, 1-year certificate, associate degree, or bachelor’s degree, showing that the organization supports multiple college and career pathways rather than a single academic track. The award listed offers up to $500, requires an essay, and is not designated as need-based or merit-based. For the 2026 cycle, applications open on April 20, 2026, and close on June 19, 2026.
