Help support our programs
Help us get fresh produce to families who need it most. We've been teaching families how to grow their own food for years, and this spring we have seen even more need. Using Zoom webinars, we have taught over 100 families how to start a vegetable garden at home, some of whom have lost their jobs due to COVID-19 and need to stretch their budgets further this year. We also have food gardens throughout the county where we grow and donate organically grown produce to food pantries. Your contribution will help sustain our efforts to ensure that every Putnam family has the ability to access fresh food.
Did you know that the Public Presentations Program is one of 4-H’s most beneficial and rewarding experiences? It is the one most often credited by 4-H alumni as having given them an edge above peers in both college and professional careers. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, 4-H clubs are unable to traditionally continue. By donating today you will help ensure that Putnam County is able to provide technology to clubs providing a unique opportunity to continue developing positive self-concept and poise, gain self-confidence before a group and learn to express their ideas clearly.
