Clemson Extension 4-H: Charleston, Berkeley, & Dorchester Counties

The South Carolina 4-H Youth Development Program uses a learn-by-doing approach, the involvement of caring adults, and the knowledge and resources of Clemson University and the land grant university system to empower youth to become healthy, productive, and contributing members of society.

4-H Pledge: I pledge my Head to clearer thinking, my Heart to greater loyalty, my Hands to larger service, and my Health to better living, for my club, my community, my country, and my world.

4-H is a community of young people across America who are learning leadership, citizenship, and life skills. 4-H is the youth development program of the Clemson University Cooperative Extension Service. As an informal, practical educational program for youth, 4-H is where there's fun in learning and learning in fun!

Youth, ages 5-19, can be 4-H club members and enroll in many different 4-H projects. Younger 4-H members (ages 5-8) are provided a noncompetitive learning experience as "Cloverbuds." 4-H members have special opportunities, such as serving on a county-wide 4-H teen council or participating in state programs and events.

Clemson University Cooperative Extension Service offers its programs to people of all ages, regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, disability, political beliefs, sex, marital or family status and is an equal opportunity employer.
