Beyond Ready for National 4-H Week

Building a ready generation in a world of change

The Indiana 4‑H Foundation is proud to celebrate National 4‑H Week, October 7-12, 2024. This year, the national organization has launched a new public relations campaign called Beyond Ready.

Long before the arrival of social media, 4‑H youth have been shaping our nation and bringing their peers alongside them. In fact, 4‑H was founded on the belief that young people had the ambition, creativity and ability to adopt new ideas so they could tackle society’s biggest problems.

Research shows that 4‑H youth are more ready for life’s challenges and opportunities than their non-4‑H peers. But we’re doing more than just preparing them. 4‑H empowers kids to reach their potential and go beyond expectations. By going beyond ready, youth can push past what’s expected and imagine what’s possible. That’s why so many 4‑Hers give back – invest in others, serve their communities, and make a difference larger than themselves.

Beyond Ready is a mindset that sets 4‑Hers apart: they are more than prepared for the workforce, classroom, and life. Imagine the shift in our communities if all kids had what they needed to realize their limitless potential. Envision a world where every young person is ready to tackle whatever life throws their way. We can, and we’re beyond ready to make it happen. With your support, we’ll create a Ready Generation so more kids can conquer today’s challenges and shape tomorrow’s world.
