What is a 4-H Club?
4-H clubs are groups of five or more young people who meet in local homes, schools, churches, synagogues, libraries, or community centers. 4-H members, guided by adult and team member volunteers, choose their own projects and set their own goals. Leaders help organize club programs and teach projects.
Who supports 4-H and
is there any cost?
4-H is administered by Penn State Cooperative Extension with county, state and federal support.
4-H is also assisted locally by individuals, organizations, and businesses. There is a $10 per year educational assessment fee as well as $1.00 fee for club insurance coverage. Scholarships are available based on need.
Who may join 4-H?
Anyone 8-18 years old as of Jan. 1 of the current year may join 4-H. To enroll in a project and a club, young people should have their parents permission and support. Family participation is very important to 4-H. Whether it is leading a group, teaching a project, providing transportation or filling other needs, 4-H relies on family participation.
