With respect from all who know you, we wish you, Mrs. Cusey, an enjoyable retirement. Thank you for your time, effort, patience, and for your devotion to the Future Homemakers of America. The Wapella FHA-HERO Chapter is part of a National Organization whose members are students in Home Economics or Home Economics Related Occupations. The activities of the organization are based on a common goal and eight purposes. In planning the program for the year, the executive council includes service, educational, and recreational projects. For service the members collect for Unicef, sell stationery for Muscular Dystrophy, and visit the Nursing Home. Speakers and panel discussions at the regular Chapter meetings, at the Section Rally at State Conference and at National Meeting are part of the method for carrying out the education of the members. The recreational projects include the banquet for parents, the tea for Mothers, the initiation for new members, and the Hamburger Fry and Sweetheart Dance sponsored jointly with the FFA. The National FFA Organization was launched at Kansas City, Missouri, in November of 1928 following many years of local agriculture clubs in high schools in the United States and was incorporated under a National Charter by an Act of Congress in 1950 (Rjblic Law 740, 81st Congress). The National Organization has approximately 450,000 members in 9,000 local chapters in all the states of the Union, Puerto Rico, Japan, and Great Britain. Illinois has more than 17,000 young people in FFA chapters with the Wapella Chapter having 28. The motto is Learning to do, doing to learn, earning to live, living to serve.
