Project Partners
Many of our annual Illinois 4-H Foundation donors were 4-H members themselves and want to "give back" to the organization that gave them high impact experiences as a young person and helped shape them into who they are today. There are also many current and former 4-H leaders, volunteers, and parents that support 4-H each year because they have personal experiences of seeing the positive youth development that 4-H provides.
Corporations, businesses, trade associations, and professional organizations support 4-H because they know they are investing in a program that produces young people who are better prepared to be effective leaders, contributing citizens, and value-added employees and team members.
Companies and organizations that provide at least $2,000 of annual support are recognized as our 4-H Project Partners and are assigned as the partner to one specific 4-H project curriculum area.
