Be a 4-H Volunteer!

Make a World of Difference, and be a Volunteer

"What makes my heart feel good is seeing kids achieve things they wouldn't unless you were there to help them... 4-H helps us grow our kids- to make them community minded and know how to handle life."   -4H Volunteer
 
"Because of this wonderful program, I've gained skills, memories, and friendships that will last a lifetime."    -4H Youth




Share your talents


You have a lot to give. After all, you have years of life experiences. Now's your chance to share your knowledge and talents with youth, our future leaders.

Gain experiences you'll never forget

You'll be able to meet new people and travel to interesting places. 4-H volunteers have many opportunities to attend conferences, trainings and learn new skills.


Choose projects that fit your interests

Do you like birdwatching, cooking, gardening or working with animals? There are many interesting projects and fun things to do as part of 4-H.  It's not just a program for farm kids. You can have fun with kids, and learn right along with them.


Take pride in learning

Imagine a young person's satisfaction at learning a new skill, at doing a job well. Imagine your own satisfaction at watching a young person blossom. You can help our young people as they gain self-esteem—an essential ingredient for happy, productive citizens.


Get involved today!

Whether you want to be a club leader or work with kids on a short-term project, there's a role for you in 4-H. Contact the Canyon County Extension Office at (208) 459-6003 to learn about the volunteer opportunities with 4-H and how you can get involved.
