Duval County 4-H Foundation

The Duval County 4-H Foundation, established in 1973, was created to enhance existing 4-H programs and to initiate new and innovative programs in youth development, through volunteers serving on the 4-H Foundation Board. Because of your support to the Duval County 4-H Foundation, 4-H reaches over 9,000 youth a year and gives thousands of dollars in scholarships to youth.
