Funding opportunities supported by 4-H Alberta are an excellent way to help your club raise money to cover the costs of club administration and social activities. They also help 4-H Alberta cover some of its administrative and operating costs, as a portion of some fundraising opportunities is shared with 4-H Alberta, like the Tire Recycling Program.
