Ottawa, ON, June 20, 2022 \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>4-H Canada is pleased to announce a renewed partnership commitment supporting youth in Canada, with Cargill investing over $450,000 in the 4-H movement across Canada by 2024.<\/p>\n

This partnership will focus on multiple levels of support for 4-H members and organizations across Canada in the coming two years, from grassroots to provincial agencies to national events.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe believe 4-H Canada is creating the foundation for a promising future by preparing young leaders to make positive change in their communities,\u201d said Jeff Vassart, president of Cargill Canada. \u201cWe are proud to partner with organizations like 4-H, because together we can work to inspire and prepare today\u2019s youth to be breakthrough leaders who will help solve some of the world\u2019s greatest challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n

To kick off the partnership, Cargill became the Presenting Sponsor of the\u00a0Powered Up!<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Making a Splash<\/a>\u00a0Outreach Initiatives in 2022, supporting club kits that encourage youth to get hands-on and have fun, while learning about the United Nations\u2019 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) – a set of 17 goals that encourage global citizens of all ages to help address critical issues like poverty, health, education, and the environment.<\/p>\n

Powered Up! and Making a Splash are currently being rolled out across Canada, and will reach more than 5,000 youth, providing the opportunity to enjoy hands-on activities any time, from anywhere, while making meaningful contributions to their communities, country, and the world.<\/p>\n

Also ahead, Cargill will bolster 4-H Canada\u2019s\u00a0Careers on the Grow<\/a>\u00a0programming, support the national 4-H Canada Members Forum, plus provide critical resources for programming by provincial 4-H organizations.<\/p>\n

The investment in mentorship and hands-on career programming is an important area of focus for 4-H Canada, primarily by supporting youth in setting career goals, developing in-demand skills for today\u2019s workforce, and gaining hands-on work experience. Cargill\u2019s support is critical in helping 4-H address the skills and labour gap that exists in vital industries like agriculture in Canada.<\/p>\n

In addition, Cargill is directing $90,000 to provincial 4-H organizations over the next two years to support grassroots programming in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Ontario. The funds will help bolster programs that highlight shared priorities of 4-H and Cargill, including food security, youth agriculture education, diversity, equity and inclusion, STEM, and climate and water protection.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are grateful to Cargill for their engaged and enthusiastic support of 4-H Canada\u2019s positive youth development programming,\u201d said 4-H Canada CEO, Shannon Benner. \u201cA cornerstone of the 4-H program is preparing youth for their future careers, and we are proud to expand our Careers on the Grow programming to help even more youth leaders reach their career goals. By supporting provincial 4-H organizations, Cargill is also providing vital resources to grassroots programming, bolstering a strong foundation for 4-H in Canada.\u201d<\/p>\n
