Volunteer with 4-H
Many children and teens in the US do not have positive mentors in their lives. 4-H is a place where kids can experience caring and supportive relationships with adults to help them feel belonging and hope.
As a 4-H volunteer, you can lead a club, teach a skill, or help at events.
Do you have a skill, art, craft, or passion that you'd like to share with the next generation? Join 4-H as a volunteer today, and see your skills light up a spark of curiosity in a young person.
You don't have to be a parent, teacher, or experienced youth professional. Anyone who is kind, responsible, and inclusive can be a 4-H Volunteer in their community.
How do I apply?
Volunteers apply with their local county extension office. Complete the Application Packet below and return it to the county program you'd like to volunteer with.
The application process includes 3 personal references and a criminal history background check to ensure applicants are of good character for working with youth.
Please don't complete the enrollment process in 4HOnline until your county office approves your application.
