STATE 4-H SPONSORS

The Wisconsin 4-H Foundation wishes to thank all of our State 4-H Sponsors. Their sponsorships support nearly 100,000 Wisconsin 4-H youth statewide as they learn and practice leadership and communication skills, while helping to grow in self-confidence and life skills. By giving young people experience and training in running meetings, public speaking, decision-making, and responsible work ethics, 4-H youth grow to be valuable community workers and leaders.

A State 4-H Sponsor annually supports all Wisconsin 4-H programs, from Area Animal Science Days to Arts Camp. This contribution recognition is for one program cycle of July 2011-June 2012 and renews annually. There is no better way to Join the Revolution of Responsibility.
