Union County,
Thank you for your generosity! Thanks to your support, we were able to "go green" on the $4 for 4-H map, with a total of 33 donations raising over $600! Even though we did not hit our $1,444 goal, we are so appreciative for your support! This money helps our program fund camp scholarships, in-class materials, and so much more! 🍀
If you missed $4 for 4-H but still want to submit a tax deductible donation to our program, please call our office at 706-439-6030!

On Monday, members of the Union County 4-H and FFA programs visited the Georgia State Capitol and got to learn about the legislative process in our state! 🍀 We enjoyed a tour of the Capitol building, watched part of the assembly session, learned about committees from Representative Gunter, and spoke with Commissioner Tyler Harper about the importance of our agricultural sector!

Thank you to our FFA leaders, Representative Stan Gunter and Rita Gunter, and Georgia Agriculture Commissioner, Tyler Harper for making this trip happen!
