A senate RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE MARCH 11, 2025, AS "4-H DAY" IN SOUTH 
CAROLINA AND to COMMEND the STATE 4-H TEEN COUNCIL AND THE 4-H PROGRAM TEAM ON 
THEIR NUMEROUS ACCOMPLISHMENTS OVER THE 2024-2025 YEAR AND FOR THE LEADERSHIP 
AND IMPACT THEY HAVE DEMONSTRATED.

Whereas, 4-H is the 
largest youth development organization in the United States, supporting nearly 
six million young people across the country; and

Whereas, 4-H helps 
young people become confident, independent, resilient, and compassionate 
leaders; and

Whereas, 4-H is 
building a ready generation in a world of change and is equipping young people 
with skills for the future while meeting them where they are today; and

Whereas, 4-H has been 
delivered by the Clemson Cooperative Extension Service to youth from five to 
eighteen years of age since 1908; and

Whereas, South Carolina 
4-H has over eighty-six thousand 4-H members across five program areas, 
Agriculture and Animals; Civic Engagement and Leadership; Healthy Lifestyles; 
Natural Resources; and Science, Engineering, and Technology; and

Whereas, the 4-H 
network of nearly three thousand five hundred volunteers and forty 
professionals provides caring and supportive mentoring to all members of 4-H, 
helping members grow into true leaders, entrepreneurs, and visionaries; and

Whereas, "4-H Day" 
recognizes the important role of 4-H in youth development and education and encourages 
all South Carolinians to recognize 4-H for preparing young people for work and 
life through experiential and inquiry-based learning while providing emerging 
research for positive youth development. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate:

That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, recognize March 11, 
2025 as "4-H Day" in South Carolina and commend the State 4-H Teen Council and 
the 4-H program team on their numerous accomplishments over the 2024-2025 year 
and for the leadership and impact they have demonstrated.
