4-H World Changers SPIN Club

In 4-H, we believe in the power of young people.  Through self-chosen projects, kids are paired with mentors and given opportunities to lead.  These projects and experiences bring out their potential, their passions, and their drive to help others as we empower them to become true leaders.  So what better way to help close the gender gap in science, technology, engineering and mathematics than to join the movement to change the image of what a programmer or scientist looks like and does.

Designed for middle & high school girls. BUT…we will welcome EVERYONE who has an interest in STEM, coding and making a positive impact in their community!

You do not have to be a 4-H member to participate.
