College is expensive but 4-H can help! 4-H participation and involvement leads young people to explore various careers and educational options. In 2021, the Missouri 4-H Foundation will offer over 60 college scholarships ($500 - $2,500/scholarship). 4-H’ers who are current high school seniors and former 4-Hers who are college students are eligible to apply. More scholarship information can be found at the Missouri 4-H Foundation website at https://extension2.missouri.edu//missouri-4-h/scholarships .

#MO4H is proud to continue its partnership with Feeding Missouri and Missouri Farmers Care Drive to Feed Kids in our 3rd Annual Statewide food drive! To date, ...efforts have raised over 400,000 meals to feed Missourians! This year the drive will run January through April to allow plenty of time for clubs to plan and carry out their activities. The goal for 2021 is to raise 500,000 meals. Through local food drives, fundraisers and educational events and presentations, 4-H’ers will learn about, and help raise awareness about hunger and food insecurity in Missouri, where one in five children belong to families that struggle to put enough food on the table. The need is even greater this year with the economic effect from COVID-19. New this year, through a generous donation from Missouri Farmers Care, 4-H Clubs can apply for matching mini-grants. These matching grants will help clubs further their local efforts during the drive. You can donate to this effort now by texting 4HFM2021 to 44-321. For more information about the campaign, matching mini-grants, and how to get involved, visit https://extension.missouri.edu/programs/missouri-4-h and click on 4-H Feeding Missouri button. #4HFeedingMO #DriveToFeedKids #ExtendMU
