Last Days of National Paper Clover Campaign to benefit 4-H youth



4H is a very important part of many families. My sister-in-law was a member for a few years as a baton twirler. She loved the 4H Fair and festivals. It would be a shame to have such events canceled. If you were thinking of making a purchase this year at Tractor Supply try to get there by Monday. Here is the article from Penn State's website that i found in the Weekender.


With state and federal budget deficits causing funding uncertainty this year, many organizations face tough choices when it comes to cutting expenses. Among the programs facing potential shortfalls are Penn State Extension's 4-H youth development program.
In an effort to help, Tractor Supply Company (TSC) stores in Pennsylvania are joining 4-H to support local youth with the 4-H TSC Paper Clover Campaign, a national in-store fundraising effort to benefit state and local 4-H programming in each of the communities where a Tractor Supply Company store is located.
From now through Monday, April 25, shoppers at Tractor Supply Company stores will have the opportunity to support 4-H by purchasing paper clovers for just $1 at checkout. All funds raised will be donated to 4-H to support local camps, after-school programs and other 4-H youth development program activities locally, throughout Pennsylvania and nationally.
"4-H is fortunate to have generous contributors and dedicated volunteers in the staff of Tractor Supply Company," said Christy Bartley, Pennsylvania 4-H program leader. "Tractor Supply's Paper Clover Campaign makes support of local 4-H programming easy and affordable."
"We are excited to begin our fall Paper Clover Campaign with the tremendous support of Tractor Supply Company again this year," said Donald T. Floyd Jr., president and CEO of National 4-H Council.
"Tractor Supply continues to be an excellent partner in our efforts to drive local support of, and community involvement in, 4-H programs throughout the country," he said. "Their partnership in the Paper Clover Campaign will help provide funding to 4-H in more than 900 Tractor Supply Company communities across the nation, allowing youth to explore interests in everything from animal science to robotics."
