It wasn’t possible to transfer the existing 1-800 numbers to 4-H Alberta without overcoming significant technical challenges and high costs.\r\n\r\nToll-free numbers are costly to operate. 4-H Alberta has deemed the cost to operate 1-800 numbers too high to continue as it moves forward.\u00a0 In today’s world of cell phone plans offering nationwide calling and the low cost of long-distance rates on landline plans, the cost to call provincial numbers is either free or very low.\u00a0 In contrast, toll-free numbers cost 4-H Alberta a high cost-per-minute rate for EVERY<\/strong> call received, regardless if called from a cellular or landline phone with a long-distance plan.\r\n\r\n4-H Alberta has simplified its contact information by providing one number to call answered by a staff member during business hours at the 4-H Centre.\u00a0 If staff are busy or on another call, you will be directed to a voice message system and will receive a call back at the earliest opportunity.\u00a0 Several direct contact numbers can be found on our contact page for staff contacts.\u00a0 For a list of 4-H Alberta staff with contact information, please visit Contacts<\/a>.\r\n\r\nThe 4-H Alberta main phone number is 780-682-2153<\/strong>. 4-H Alberta is currently updating its contact information in all other locations and directories.\r\n\r\n4-H Alberta understands this may be an issue or concern for some in our community.
