Contribute to 4-HWhy does 4-H need to raise money? 4-H develops lifeskills in youth through hands-on learning. Sewing classes, providing incubators and quail eggs to second grade classes, and all of our other programs require funding. The money for 4-H educational programs and awards is provided by contributions from Individuals, businesses, the Kiwanis of Hendersonville, and the Rotary Club of Hendersonville. As participation in our programs, contests, and clubs grow, more funds are needed. Here are some easy ways to support 4-H:
Buy plants ! Each spring, the 4-H Advisory Board will sell bare root plants (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, and more) as a fundraiser. Because we join other counties with this fundraiser, we order large quantities, and can offer great prices. Email Cindy_Williams@ncsu.edu if you're interested in purchasing quality plants at reduced rates. Purchase 4-H bumper stickers! These are 3 x 3" squares, with a 4-H clover. Cost: $2 each or 2 for $3. Purchase grocery gift cards from Cindy Williams, secretary, or a 4-H club member. Henderson County 4-H will receive 5% of the purchase price. You can use the gift card to purchase groceries, prescriptions, or gas. Using the grocery gift card for gas will give you a discount of 3 cents per gallon. If you purchase the gift card from a club member, he or she will receive 4% of the purchase price as reimbursement for 4-H expenses. Call Cindy at 697-4891 for more information.
Link your grocery bonus card to Henderson County 4-H. Call Cindy Williams at (828)697-4891, or email her at Cindy_Williams@ncsu.edu. Include your mailing address. Cindy will mail you a bar code to scan with your grocery bonus card, to link your card to 4-H. A new bar code will need to be scanned each year. Bi-Lo does not charge the customer, but donates a percentage of each purchase to 4-H. Henderson County 4-H has endowments with the Community Foundation of Henderson County, and the NC 4-H Development Fund. Please consider a donation to one of our endowments.

Contributions sent as memorials for Jean Miller, 4-H Secretary for 47 years, will fund scholarships for students to 4-H Camp or Congress. Because 4-H is a non-profit organization, contributions are tax-deductible. Please mail contributions to: Henderson County 4-H, 740 Glover St., Hendersonville, NC 28792. Specify if you would like your donation to help sponsor a specific event or award, or to add to the endowment funds. 4-H staff salaries are paid by county and state governments, so your contributions go entirely to 4-H programs.
