Welcome to the Indiana 4-H Foundation!


Welcome to the Indiana 4-H Foundation. We have proudly supported the Indiana 4-H program, led by the Purdue University Cooperative Extension Service, since 1961.

Use this site to reconnect with former 4-H friends, learn about 4-H programs statewide and how you can get involved. And join the Bright Green Team and help us build a Bright Green Future for 300,000 Hoosier kids who are proud to be 4-Hers!

We need your ideas, your involvement and your support to make the 4-H experience we all enjoyed a reality for today’s Indiana youth.

Welcome home! We hope you will visit us often.

 

"Through 4-H I have learned the rewards of volunteerism far outweigh the pain of the work. I want to continue volunteering and giving of myself throughout my life." - Amy Wenning

 

"The projects I have taken required a great deal of time and hard work. This has, in part, shaped the work ethic I have. It has taught me the value of doing something well." - Sarah Haase

You're Invited to a 4-H Reunion at the State Fair!

We invite all 4-Hers, leaders, alumni and parents to join us for a 4-H Family Reunion at the Indiana State Fair! Come catch up with old friends and make new ones! Click here for more information.

Loan Programs available for College Juniors and Seniors

The Indiana 4-H Foundation has two loan programs available to 4-H alums that are currently juniors or seniors in Purdue University programs. The funds have been endowed in memory of Dr. Robert Amick, a career extension professional, and in honor of the Myers Family, a 4-H family of many generations. Applications are accepted at any time and repayment is delayed until after graduation. Apply today through either of these programs.
