Teaching our youth today for a better tomorrow
4-H is a U.S.-based network of youth organizations whose mission is "engaging youth to reach their fullest potential while advancing the field of youth development". Its name is a reference to the occurrence of the initial letter H four times in the organization's original motto ‘head, heart, hands, and health’ which was later incorporated into the fuller pledge officially adopted in 1927. In the United States, the organization is administered by the National Institute of Food and Agriculture of the United States Department of Agriculture. 4-H Canada is an independent non-profit organization overseeing the operation of branches throughout Canada. There are 4-H organizations in over 50 countries; the organization and administration varies from country to country. Each of these programs operates independently but cooperatively through international exchanges, global education programs, and communications.
Our Club Meetings are held the 1st Thursday of each month. We start at 6:30 for youth under the age of 9 (Clovers) and the general meeting for all youth begins at 7:00. Meetings are held at the San Martin Lions Club located at 12415 Murphy Ave, San Martin.
We couldn't accomplish our goals without the help of the adult volunteers. Volunteers play a critical role in the development of our youth. If you would like to be a volunteer please let us know and we can get you started.
