Partnerships

4-H has many partners on and off campus, internally and externally.  These formal and informal relationships that we build strengthen the work that we do and the impacts that we can have. 

Funding partnerships.  The most obvious here is the county partners that each Association has.  Grant and Foundation partners are also on the list.

4-H Foundation.  The New York State 4-H Foundation, Inc. is a private, not-for-profit corporation, which for over 50 years has been focused upon building and enhancing quality 4-H Youth Development programs for New York's young people.
