National Volunteer Week is taking place April 19-25, 2026, and at 4-H Manitoba, we are proud to celebrate the dedicated individuals who make our program possible.
Volunteers are the backbone of 4-H. Their time, leadership, and commitment play a vital role in shaping the experiences of our members — helping young people build confidence, develop skills, and grow into the community leaders of tomorrow. Quite simply, 4-H would not exist without the passion and dedication of our volunteers.
To recognize and celebrate these outstanding contributions, we are inviting submissions to be featured on 4-H Manitoba’s social media channels throughout National Volunteer Week.
How to Participate:
We encourage individuals, clubs, members, and communities to submit a volunteer spotlight that includes:
- A photo of the volunteer
- A short write-up highlighting their involvement with 4-H Manitoba
Submissions may include details such as:
- How long they have been involved
- Their role or capacity within 4-H
- What inspires them to volunteer
- Why they believe 4-H is important
Submit your entries to: kmccallum@4h.mb.ca by April 17th, 2026
This is a wonderful opportunity to recognize the individuals who give so much to support 4-H and to share their stories across the province. Join us in celebrating the people who help make 4-H Manitoba a strong, vibrant community and who are instrumental in developing the next generation of leaders.

The Royal Manitoba Winter Fair is fast approaching and will be held March 30–April 4 at the Keystone Centre in Brandon.
As always, 4-H Manitoba will have a booth set up in the Flynn Arena, where we’ll feature daily crafts and be available to answer questions about 4-H and the many opportunities available to youth across the province.
Be sure to mark your calendar for 4-H Day on Tuesday, March 31! We’ll have a special craft planned for the day, and if you arrive early, you might even receive a 4-H drawstring sportpack (quantities are limited).
And of course, Clover will be there, giving fairgoers the chance to watch a demonstration birth of her calf, Leaf — an experience you won’t want to miss!
4-H Day at the Royal Manitoba Winter Fair is generously sponsored through the Provincial Exhibition of Manitoba by Mazergroup. We thank them for their continued support of the Provincial Ex, the Royal Manitoba Winter Fair, and their belief in the 4-H program.
