“There are so many opportunities in 4-H that I have been able to experience, and I have learned that 4-H is an organization for everyone. A person can do anything that interests them in 4-H, whether it's baking food, sewing clothes, making art projects, modeling clothing items, showing a livestock animal, or even giving a presentation, 4-H has something for everyone. 4-H has helped me immensely in growing my network skills, having new experiences, and learning the essential factors that go into being a leader.”
