For Volunteers

Main Content

There are many ways for community members to volunteer and get involved with to support the efforts of Essex/Hudson County 4-H. We are always looking to partner with corporate volunteers.
Here are some options:

• Volunteer at a virtual or other event on the club or county level
• Become a club leader or co-leader/ Start a new club
• Coordinate volunteer day with your colleagues/employees
• Serve on the 4-H Advisory Board
  • The Essex County 4-H Leaders’ Association is an incorporated non-profit organization of adult volunteers working together with the 4-H staff to develop and provide leadership for the 4-H Program.
    
    Membership includes 4-H Leaders, community volunteers and parents. Some of our goals are the planning and conducting of county-wide programs and activities, fundraising to support 4-H programs, and supporting the efforts of all 4-H’ers in the County.
    

As a 4-H volunteer, you will develop leadership skills and expand your knowledge, gain satisfaction by sharing your knowledge with youth and watching them grow, become an active member of the community, and have many opportunities to meet and share ideas with other adults working to make a positive difference in the lives of youth. Essex/Hudson County 4 H faculty and staff provide training and guidance for all volunteers working with youth.

Corporate Volunteers

Corporate volunteers can support leading short-term clubs or projects, providing learning opportunities for youth by participating in professional development events, or volunteering in other special events that happen throughout the year.
