The Fairfield County 4-H Endowment is a 501(c)(3) located in Fairfield County, Ohio. Although planning for the endowment was started in 2000, it became fully endowed in 2006. The goal of the board is to generate funds sufficient to endow a 4-H position in Fairfield County and support the 4-H youth development program, allowing the 4-H tradition to continue for generations to come.
The endowment also provides select funding for educational opportunities, achievement trips, training and personal development for 4-H members and volunteers throughout the county. The foundation is operated by a board of nearly 25 local community members who believe in the power of 4-H.
Fairfield County 4-H Highlights:
- The program serves over 3,150 youth each year through traditional club and school enrichment programming.
- This year, 241 active 4-H volunteers will lead 55 project clubs and 25 Cloverbud clubs.
- The program offers four summer camp options, where more than 350 youth attend camp annually.
