Visit your local Tractor Supply this fall and purchase a paper clover to help Grant County 4-H members attend 4-H camps and leadership events.
Silver City, NM (October 3, 2019) – Every year, 4-Her’s in Grant County participate in a number of 4-H programs to help improve their knowledge and leadership skills. This fall, the local Silver City Tractor Supply store is continuing their long-standing partnership with 4-H for the 2019 Fall Paper Clover Campaign to make it possible for more youth in the community to experience 4-H’s youth-led, hands-on programming.
October 9-October 20, 2019 Grant County Tractor Supply customers can participate in the 2019 Fall Paper Clover campaign by purchasing paper clovers at checkout. The funds raised will be awarded as scholarships to individual Grant County 4-H members wishing to attend 4-H camps and leadership conferences across the country. The number of scholarships distributed to students following the fall campaign will be determined based on the total amount raised.
“The money that we have raised is able to give 4-H members the opportunity to attend events that they otherwise would not have been able to attend, thanks to the generous donations from the community” 4-H Agent, Jessica Swapp said.
