BADGERLAND FINANCIAL A GOLDEN SUPPORTER OF WISCONSIN 4-H

Badgerland Financial, formerly Badgerland Farm Credit Services (FCS), is setting history by becoming the first Gold Clover Level State 4-H Sponsor.  Through their generous donation of $7,500 to the Wisconsin 4-H Foundation, they are providing 4-H participants with opportunities to become involved in a variety of youth development activities across the state.  Before they became the Gold Clover State 4-H Sponsor, the former FCS was an ongoing sponsor of the State 4-H Youth Leader Council.  With this new sponsorship, Badgerland will impact the 4-H experiences of nearly 100,000 4-H youth across the state.  Badgerland is truly “Investing in Wisconsin’s 4-H Youth…Leaders of Tomorrow!”

Badgerland, a Baraboo-based company, focuses on providing financial services to farmers and homeowners in Southern Wisconsin.  These services include agricultural and country living loans, cash management tools, tax preparation, crop insurance, farm accounting, and estate planning. 

Badgerland is not only concerned with the satisfaction of their customers through their financial support, but they are also interested in improving the communities across Wisconsin that these customers call home.  Badgerland takes part in a variety of efforts in community building, and now as a Gold Clover Level State 4-H Sponsor they are able to make an impact that is bigger than ever for Wisconsin 4-H youth.

The Wisconsin State 4-H Sponsor Program launched in the spring of 2007.  It was developed by the Wisconsin 4-H Foundation board in order to provide 4-H supporters with an array of new choices about how to financially support all the young people who are involved in 4-H throughout Wisconsin.  All of the State Sponsors are listed at the major Wisconsin 4-H events throughout the year.

The Wisconsin 4-H Foundation has been funding 4-H programs since 1954.  These programs aim to enhance the leadership, citizenship and communication skills of the youth who participate in them.  Through 4-H programs, participants are presented with wonderful opportunities and create friendship that last a lifetime.
