NEW - Sullivan County 4-H Mentoring Seeks Volunteers

Are you looking for a way to make a huge impact in the life of an area youngster?  The UNH Cooperative Extension 4-H program is seeking caring adults to serve as mentors to local youths between the ages of 10-12.  Adults would work together and meet once a week for a year with a group of 3 or 4 youths. Groups can form around similar interests and meet at times that are convenient. As well as weekly meetings, “Family Night Out” activities will be planned every other month so all mentors, youth, and their families can come together to spend time in a relaxed and fun learning environment.  Mentors become 4-H volunteers and receive orientation, training, and ongoing support.  

Please contact: Robin Luther, 4-H Program Manager, Robin.Luther@unh.edu or call 603-863-9200.

This program is funded by a Youth and Families with Promise  grant that has been awarded to the University of New Hampshire Cooperative Extension through National 4-H Council and the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP)
