Support Iowa 4-H with a Text!

Now you have an exciting, new way to be a part of 4-H’s success! During the month of April, join 4-H’s Give2Vote Challenge by texting CLOVER to 50555 to give $10 in support of 4-H in your state. You can also take the Challenge by making a secure online donation at 4-H.org to benefit your state 4-H program.

When you give, you vote! Each $10 mobile gift or online donation counts as one “vote” towards Iowa 4-H. The state with the most “votes” at the end of the Challenge receives an additional $5,000. So let's let that be Iowa!! Voting ends April 30th, so don't delay and vote today.

Share this on Facebook, Twitter and e-mail it to all your friends. The fun and easy challenge is a great way to show your Iowa 4-H pride!
