In a world where change is the only constant, Alabama
4-H programs embrace a consistency in values. The programs never waver from the core values of hard work, responsibility, leadership and community involvement... precisely those values today's youth need most as they cope with the uncertainties of sweeping societal changes.

4-H provides learning opportunities in eight crucial areas:

  • Citizenship and Civic Education
  • Communicaive and Expressive Arts
  • Family and Consumer Science
  • Environmental Education and Natural Resources
  • Healthy Lifestyle Education
  • Personal Development and Leadership
  • Plant and Animal Sciences
  • Science and Technology

Today, 4-H Youth Development has Extension faculty from Auburn and Alabama A&M Universities who can access the nation's leading researchers in wireless communications, biotechnology, engineering, chemistry, agriculture, forestry, environmental sciences and more.

We want to raise $550,000 in support of these statewide programs.

With these additional resources of $2 million, programming will be developed to reach even more young people.
