🍀 🌟 4-H & United Way: Building Brighter Futures Together! 🍀 🌟

We were excited to participate in the United Way of the Golden Triangle Region Campaign Kickoff & 50K Your Way Fundraiser held at historic Catfish Alley in downtown Columbus, Mississippi! 🎉

4-H Extension Agents from Choctaw, Lowndes, Noxubee, Oktibbeha, and Winston Counties teamed up to provide hands-on, experiential learning activities designed to introduce youth and families to the exciting world of STEAM — Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics! 🔬💻⚙️🎨📐

Through activities like these, young people have the opportunity to learn by doing, explore new interests, build problem-solving skills, and develop confidence that can benefit them in school, careers, and everyday life.

The United Way of the Golden Triangle supports programs and organizations working to improve the quality of life for children, families, and individuals throughout our communities. ❤️

We are proud to be part of the United Way of the Golden Triangle family and look forward to future partnership opportunities that allow us to provide positive youth development experiences throughout the Golden Triangle!

🙌 Together, we can make a difference — one young person, one family, and one community at a time!

It has been a busy harvest season in Noxubee County. Corn harvest has been going for a few weeks. Now Soybean harvest is getting underway. Our office was able to assist in certifying 6 fields this week for the soybean yield challenge contest through the MSPB. We are looking forward to seeing how this yield data turns out for our county.

🌟 Noxubee County 4-H Volunteers Growing as Leaders! 🌟

Our Noxubee County 4-H Volunteers were proud to participate in the Mississippi 4-H Volunteer Leaders’ Association North Forum held on the beautiful campus of Mississippi State University! 💚💪

Throughout the forum, our volunteers participated in a variety of educational workshops designed to strengthen their leadership, communication, teamwork, and 4-H knowledge. 📚👏

The knowledge and skills they gained will not stay in Starkville—they are bringing them back home to Noxubee County to help make an even greater difference in the lives of our 4-H’ers! 💚

Strong volunteers help build strong 4-H programs. We are grateful for our dedicated volunteers who continue to learn, grow, lead, and serve—not only for the benefit of Noxubee County 4-H, but for young people throughout Mississippi! 🍀

Thank you, Noxubee County 4-H Volunteers , for investing in yourselves so you can continue investing in our youth!

A special “Thank You“to our presenters, Volunteers, Extension Agents, 4-H Ambassadors, 4-H Parents, and to Dr. Mariah Morgan and the Center for 4-H Youth Development Staff for all their efforts to make this event a success!
