Benefits of 4-H
4‑H is America’s largest youth development organization and we empower young people with the skills to lead for a lifetime.
Kids Build Life Skills Through Hands-On Learning
Kids build life skills by leading hands-on projects in areas like science, health, agriculture and, civic engagement–helping them to grow confidence, independence, resilience and compassion. Adult mentors provide a positive environment where they learn by doing. This 4‑H experience is delivered by a community of more than 100 public universities across the nation.
4‑H is always here
4‑H’s positive youth development programs are available where you need them and welcome children who want to have fun, learn and grow. CLOVER provides critical learning resources for kids and teens all year long.
