When the clovers come out on St. Patrick’s Day today, that’s a cue to think about supporting the Arkansas 4-H youth development program, said John Thomas, managing director for the Arkansas 4-H Foundation.
“It’s kind of a natural connection for us, since the four-leaf clover is our symbol,” Thomas said in a news release. “We hope that the holiday will also be a reminder to support a program that helps hundreds of thousands of Arkansas youth every year who develop strong leadership and citizenship skills and will provide a ready and innovative workforce for our state.”
All money raised supports Arkansas 4-H youth scholarships and program/trip sponsorships, removing financial barriers so that Arkansas youth can experience the unmatched outcomes of Arkansas 4-H.
