The Clark County 4-H Foundation is pleased to announce important scholarship opportunities for local youth pursuing higher education. Committed to supporting the academic endeavors of its members, the Foundation offers both one-time and renewable scholarships designed to help future leaders achieve their educational goals.

Scholarship Details:

One-Time Scholarship:
This scholarship is specifically designed for 4-H members who have already graduated high school and are continuing their education. It is a one-time award and is not renewable. If you are a college freshman or sophomore and are still enrolled in 4-H, you are encouraged to apply. The scholarship amount will be determined by the board. Please note: applicants who have already received the renewable scholarship as a high school senior are not eligible for this one-time award.

Renewable Scholarship:
The Foundation also offers a renewable scholarship. The initial and renewable award amounts will range from $500 to $1,000, with the exact amount determined by the board. To fulfill the renewable award in subsequent years, recipients must provide proof of one semester’s attendance and a completed schedule for the second semester of the renewable year. No new application is needed for the renewable award once initially granted.

Important Deadline:
The deadline for all scholarship applications is January 15, 2026.

How to Apply:
Interested applicants can find more information and access the application by following the QR codes provided on the Foundation’s flyer, or by emailing [email protected].

“The Clark County 4-H Foundation is dedicated to empowering our youth through education,” says a Foundation spokesperson. “These scholarships are a vital part of our mission to support the continued growth and success of 4-H members as they pursue their academic dreams.”

Local 4-H members who meet the criteria are strongly encouraged to apply for these valuable scholarships, which can provide significant financial assistance for their college careers. Don’t miss this opportunity to further your education with the support of the Clark County 4-H Foundation.
