The Greene County 4-H Endowment has a CHALLENGE waiting for you!!!
Why have a Greene County 4-H Endowment? Interest accrued from our Endowment can provide numerous opportunities for the youth of Greene County and our wonderful adult volunteers that simply would not be possible through our basic Extension operating funds. These endowment funds are invested throughout the Ohio 4-H Foundation, part of The Ohio State University. The endowment fund is different from annual types of gifts and contributions received to support our program because the funds are permanently invested and we spend only the annual earned interest.
Interest from this 4-H Endowment will be used to support a variety of 4-H educational efforts such as 4-H award celebration, scholarships for camp, 4-H and Cloverbud promotional materials, leadership training, volunteer training, scholarship for statewide workshops such as 4-H Conference, Carving New Ideas, Sea Camp, etc., and for materials to assist volunteers in presenting educational programs and up to date information for their 4-H members.
A donation to the Greene County 4-H Endowment is a tax-deductible gift.
If you are interested in helping with or contributing to the endowment, contact the Extension Office. Many kinds of gifts can be given to our Endowment including cash, property, gifts-in-kind, life insurance, securities, bequest, charitable trusts, and memorials.
The challenge is for clubs or families to donate money in the amount of the current year. This year, the amount challenged to our clubs and families is $20.18 for the 2018 year.
As always, thank you for your support.
Please make checks payable to the Greene County 4-H Endowment and in the memo put fund #242714.
