Volunteer with 4-H!
Four-H students are leaders. They pursue passions. They solve problems and tackle everyday challenges. And YOU are the key to their success! We need adult volunteers to mentor 4-H youth, lead local clubs, and run events. No experience necessary – we’ll train you! But you must be at least 18 years old – or 21 years old to chaperone overnight trips – and pass a criminal background check outlined in the Volunteer Screening Rules/Guidelines (YPS) Youth Protection Standards to learn about what goes into working with youth under 18.
