LINCOLN — The Nebraska FFA Foundation recently awarded Ms. Jessica Evans, Osmond FFA advisor, with the 2026 Gary Scharf Helping Hand Award. Evans was nominated and selected for the award based on her selfless service and dedication to youth development. “There are several characteristics that set Jessica apart as someone who goes above and beyond,” says community member SheilaAbler. “When a need arises, she does not hesitate — she shows up and goes to work. She leads by example, showing students and community members what it means to serve selflessly and respond when others are in need.”
