What is 4-H? Florida 4-H is the youth development component of Florida Cooperative Extension. 4-H’s

mission is to empower youth ages 5-18 to reach their full potential while working and learning in

partnership with caring adults.

Who sponsors 4-H? The UF/IFAS Extension Office in Broward County is a partnership between the

University of Florida’s Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, Broward County Parks and

Recreation, and the United States Department of Agriculture. Extension programs are open to all

persons regardless of race, color, sex, disability, religion, or national origin.

The purpose of the Broward 4-H Community Fair is to:

- Enable 4-Hers to evaluate performance relative to the standards set, get new project ideas from

peers, and to be inspired to make the best better next year.

- Incentivize 4-Hers through prize money and ribbons to show others what they can do.

- Promote the value of 4-H to members, families and the community.

4-H PARTICIPATION IN THE BROWARD 4-H COMMUNITY FAIR

There are many opportunities for 4-H members to participate in 4-H specific events at the Broward 4-H

Community Fair. Members may serve as 4-H ambassadors during the fair, enter exhibits, show off their

service hours for time volunteered.
