4-H Youth

According to the 4-H Study of Positive Youth Development (Tufts University), young people in 4-H report better grades, twice the likelihood of making healthy choices and are twice as likely to give back to their community compared to non-4-H'ers. Youth learn life skills, make friends and make the world a better place.
