4-H
"I pledge my head to clearer thinking, my heart to greater loyalty, my hands to larger service, & my health to better living, for my club, my community, my country, & my world."
That's the 4-H pledge written in 1927 & it still holds true today. Put your head, heart, hands, & health together & there's no telling how far you can go! Learn more about this rockin' organization.
4-H is a community of young people across America who are learning leadership, citizenship, & life skills as they work in partnership with caring adults. What does that mean? In 4-H we are committed to helping young people develop skills that will help them succeed. We want to empower all youth to reach their full potential.
In 4-H youth learn by doing projects that are designed to fit their needs at different ages. Learn about the variety of projects from food to forestry, rocks & rabbits.
4-H gives kids & teens all kinds of opportunities to experience life skills, to practice them, & be able to use them throughout their lifetime.
4-H teaches young people how to meet their needs for belonging, mastery, independence, & generosity in positive ways.
In 4-H we work with young people in a variety of settings including schools, day camps, overnight camps, afterschool, clubs, & other learning environments.
