Please help if you can, even $4 makes a difference!

Tomorrow is $4 for 4-H! 🍀💚

$4 for 4-H is a statewide day of giving where we're asking everyone to donate just $4 to support 4-H youth programs right here in Maryland.

In Dorchester County, that support goes directly towards our clubs, activities, and the opportunities our kids get to learn, grow, and try new things.

If 4-H means something to you, or you just believe in what it does for young people, we hope you'll consider giving and sharing our posts.

The link is currently live and will be open until May 3rd!
