Youth Celebrate National 4-H Week By Keeping It Green

National 4-H Week is held every year as a time to celebrate, promote, and share the 4-H positive youth development movement. This year on October 5-11, 4-H youth across the country will be "Keeping It Green" by raising awareness about environmental issues and initiating environmental projects that make a positive difference in their communities. Throughout National 4-H week and the year, 4-H'ers solve problems in their communities, raise awareness about environmental issues, and make a difference for their futures in the spirit of 4-H's vision to create a world in which youth and adults learn, grow, and work together as catalysts for positive change.
