It’s National 4-H Week🍀
4-H is a youth development program that helps young people learn by doing. Through hands-on projects, leadership opportunities, community service, agriculture, STEM, public speaking, and so much more, 4-H gives opportunities to discover their interests, build confidence, and develop skills that last a lifetime.
From my very first 4-H meeting to now serving as a club leader and a member of the Sussex County 4-H Links, I can truly say that 4-H has shaped so much of who I am today. My journey has taken me farther than I ever could have imagined from state exchange trips and National 4-H Conference and Congress, to serving as my club and county president, and eventually serving as the Delaware State 4-H Teen Council President!
4-H is open to youth ages 5–19, and there are local 4-H clubs and programs, as well as cooperative Extensions, across the country that members, leaders, and volunteers can join.
Happy National 4-H Week! Here’s to the organization that taught me to also try “To Make the Best Better”💚
