Support IAITC with the Illinois Farm Bureau Visa Card.

The Illinois Farm Bureau VISA card gives you a great interest rate and provides a way for you to support the IAA Foundation at the same time. A portion of the proceeds generated by the IFB VISA will be donated to the IAA Foundation to aid Illinois Agriculture in the Classroom. By using the IFB VISA card for business or pleasure, you will be investing in the future of Illinois agriculture and supporting the mission of the IAA Foundation.


Through generous support received by the IAA Foundation the following are made possible:

They are linked with the Illinois Learning Standards, Illinois Assessment Framework and feature facts, career interviews and scientific experiments.
