"Bringing the Barn to the School" in Medford
July 26, 2017
Forward Financial Bank has donated $7,000 to the Bringing the Barn to the School Project spearheaded by the Medford FFA Alumni, Medford FFA, and the Agriculture Department.
This donation highlights the importance of Agriculture in our local economy and the continued need for hands-on educational opportunities for our youth. It is also a true cooperative effort between the school, the FFA and area businesses to bring this project to life.
“This project reaches beyond teaching students about the basics of farming,” commented Dave Clark, Executive Vice President for Forward Financial Bank. “The building connects the community with the school through different programs. It also creates an environment of collaboration between departments within the school as the barn is planned and maintained. The full impact of this project and how well it has been thought out made it something that Forward needed to get behind.”
