These hands-on learning experiences will help kids build the confidence and skills they’ll need to navigate life’s challenges. Here are some examples of how your support will impact our youth:

Your gift will help our Wisconsin youth make the best better.

Your support makes it possible for 4-H to continue investing in the people, programs and resources that make a meaningful difference.

4-H is all about youth development and empowerment.

4-H members equip their heads for clear thinking, planning and reasoning, use their hearts to be kind, sympathetic, and true, train their hands to be helpful, skillful, and useful, and care for their health so they can enjoy life, resist disease, and work efficiently.

4-H participants gain life skills through hands-on experiences while making meaningful contributions to the community. Many only associate 4-H with cows and cookies, but our members are involved in so much more, including archery, robotics, photography – whatever sparks youth interests! Through these experiences, 4-H’ers are empowered to be the next generation of leaders and help their communities move forward.

Waupaca County 4-H provides a wide range of opportunities.

More than 400 youth learn and grow through 4-H in Waupaca County. Our local 4-H program engages young people in 18 4-H clubs and 4 project committees throughout the county. With the assistance of over 150 adult volunteers, youth have the opportunity for a variety of project experiences, leadership development, community service, and life skill-building.

One highlight for Waupaca County 4-H members is Super Saturday project day where youth and adult volunteers teach close to 40 classes annually for members of all ages to learn about new projects, experience youth, and adult partnerships and meet others from across the county. On an evaluation, when asked what they found most valuable about the day, one person said knowledge for life learning and hands-on projects. Another participant said the energy in the building was amazing!

Additional programs like Winter Camp, Summer Camp, youth Ambassadors, Day Camp, project workshops, serving as club officers, and more offer youth experiences that will have an impact for life. We continue to try to increase program offerings, reach new audiences, and grow true leaders through 4-H. With your support, we can work to make this happen.
