We Support
We value our local youth and their contribution to our future. We strive to support their education, activities, cultural heritage and volunteerism in the community. As part of this focus, we offer scholarships to students with an interest in agriculture and a strong academic performance. We also ensure 4-H members within our community can attend 4-H leadership and development programs by providing funding assistance and supporting their programs directly. We also work with various youth and educational organizations like the Youth Volunteer Corps to provide valuable development opportunities and mentoring.
