Happy Memorial Day from WVU 4-H!

Today, we honor and remember the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. As 4-H’ers, we are reminded of our pledge—“I pledge my heart to larger service”—and the importance of giving back to our communities in meaningful ways.

We are grateful for the sacrifices made for our freedom and the legacy of service they inspire. ❤️

Tell us how you're recognizing service and sacrifice in your community this Memorial Day in the comments.
