4-H Volunteering

Volunteers help make 4-H possible! Join the nearly 15,000 adult and youth volunteers in Wisconsin—in addition to the more than 500,000 volunteers nationwide—in supporting 4-H youth and helping them grow into true leaders.

To volunteer, you don’t need to have previous experience working with youth. The most important qualifications are:

• a desire to work with young people to help them learn new things and gain life skills; and
• wanting to provide youth with positive experiences in a safe and welcoming environment.

Extension volunteers work with staff to deliver educational programs using University and other high-quality educational resources. Become a volunteer to access resources, trainings, planning support, and more.
