Visit your local Tractor Supply at 3810 Route 9 South, Rio Grande, NJ from April 27-May 8 and purchase a paper clover to help Cape May County 4-H members participate in 4-H leadership and camp programs.
Cape May Court House – Every year, 4-H youth in Cape May County participate in educational programs to help position them with the skills they need to succeed in their lives and careers. The Tractor Supply Company (TSC) store in Cape May County and throughout New Jersey are continuing their long-standing partnership with 4-H this spring with the Paper Clover Campaign, making it possible for more youth in the community to experience 4-H.
April 27-May 8, Tractor Supply customers can participate in the 4-H Paper Clover Campaign by purchasing paper clovers for $1 or more at checkout while in a store or online at the TSC website https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/cms/4h. “The funds raised from the Tractor Supply 4-H Paper Clover Campaign provide scholarships for Cape May County 4-H members to participate in valuable national 4-H leadership experiences and state camping programs,” says Linda Horner, 4-H Program Coordinator. The number of scholarships available following the Spring 2022 event will be determined based on the total amount raised. “The Fall campaign was the most successful to-date in Cape May County, and we hope the Spring campaign will do even better,” added Horner.
Since it began in 2010, the partnership between Tractor Supply and 4-H has generated more than 14 million dollars in support across the nation. The fundraising effort provides support for youth to participate in 4-H opportunities and experiences at the county, state, and national level.
