- ''This article refers to the youth organization. "4-H Club" is also the title of a 1965 play by Sam Shepard
4-H in the United States is a youth organization administered by the Department of Agriculture Cooperative Extension System with the mission of "empowering youth to reach their full potential, working and learning in partnership with caring adults." 4-H serves over 9 million members in the United States from ages 8 to 21 in almost 100,000 clubs. 4-H clubs and related organizations now exist in many other countries as well where the organization and administration varies from country to country.
The goal of 4-H is to develop leadership, citizenship, and life skills of youth through mostly experiential learning programs. Though typically associated as an agricultural related organization due to its roots, 4-H has grown to be more than just for students interested in agriculture. 4-H projects extend into topics such as GIS, computer science, and even public speaking.
