CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR 4-H SENIORS!

As you embark on a new chapter, upon your graduation from high school, the Illinois 4-H program is PROUD of your accomplishments. You have excelled in your 4-H work and beyond. You have managed and overcome challenges. You have given back to your families and communities. WE ARE PROUD OF YOU!

We ask that you complete a 4-H Senior Survey. This survey is designed for graduating seniors to share about your experiences in 4-H, tell us about your career path and if 4-H influenced your school or career decisions. Deadline March 15, 2024

Seniors participating in the 4-H Senior Survey will receive a 4-H graduation tassel as a memorabilia item to remember your time in the Illinois 4-H program. You must complete the survey to receive the tassel this year. This 4-H tassel will be a special gift from Illinois 4-H, the Illinois 4-H Alumni Association and the Illinois 4-H Foundation, as a token to celebrate your successes. We know some of you may have a year left in the 4-H program and we hope you will make the most of your experiences!

As you come to the end of your 4-H career, your name will be added to alumni status as a member of the Illinois 4-H Alumni Association. Your 4-H connection does not end here. We want to see where you go, what successes continue to unfold and to create a lifelong connection between YOU and Illinois 4-H. We hope one day you will return as a volunteer or even as a 4-H parent.

Visit https://go.illinois.edu/srsurvey24 to complete the survey by March 15!
