4-H is the youth education program of the University of Nebraska Extension and the United States Department of Agriculture. 4-H is people - youth - and volunteer leaders - sharing, learning, growing - becoming the best they can be. Nebraska 4-H is
comprised of youth, ages 5-19, and adults. 4-H is one of a kind! 4-H provides a series of learning experiences where youth, with help from parents, interested adults, and older youth leaders, grow personally as they develop skills for living and for responsible citizenship. 4-H'ers have fun while they work and learn together. 4-H happens through club meetings, project groups, individual project work, and special activities and events. Skills learned through 4-H help people to be better members of their families, their communities, and their world. 4-H opens doors to career development and to leisure time activities. The 4-H mission is “4-H empowers youth to reach their full potential, working and learning in partnership with caring adults.” 4-H accomplishes it's mission through information education. Dawson County 4-H is an equal opportunity organization and abides by the nondiscrimination policies of the University of Nebraska and the United States Department of Agriculture.

From now – October 31, 2026, Casey’s and 4-H are joining forces to strengthen the communities they call home. With more than 2,900 stores across the Midwest and South, and more than 2.5 million active 4-H’ers in those areas, this partnership is helping more young people become Beyond Ready to lead and give back – locally and beyond.

- September 30 – October 31: add a donation in any order made online or in the Casey’s app.

Every donation benefits local 4-H programs.
