Innovative Program Grants
In cooperation with the Arkansas 4-H Foundation, we award Innovative Program Grants of up to $200 to four clubs each year for community projects.
In evaluating applications, we look for programs that benefit more than just one club - the whole community if possible. If others in the community will be involved in the execution of the program, even better.
Past grants have been awarded for repairing/fixing up/renovating community buildings that could be used for 4-H meetings as well as the rest of the community, buying school supplies for lower-income kids, working with the disabled, and activities at nursing homes.
Innovative Program Grant applications are available at you county cooperative extension office or downloaded from the cooperative extension service web site (Form F.Y.4H - 134).
