The 4-H program provides young people with an opportunity
to learn how to become productive, self-assured adults
who can make their community and country a good place in
which to live. This is fostered through project and program
work, experiences with their 4-H club members and leaders
and their participation in district, regional and even
provincial programs.
The goal of the 4-H program is youth development. The
objectives of 4-H clubs are knowledge, leadership,
citizenship, and personal development.
4-H is an organization dedicated to young people.
The purpose of the 4-H program is to prepare girls
and boys for their future as adult citizens. 4-H
stands for head, heart, hands and health. The 4-H
pledge describes the significance of the four H's:
I pledge:
- My HEAD to clearer thinking,
- My HEART to greater loyalty,
- My HANDS to larger service,
- My HEALTH to better living,
For my Club, my Community and My Country.
The philosophy of the 4-H program is explained by the 4-H motto:
Learn to do by Doing.
