Opportunities

4-H has a variety of opportunities available to both members & leaders. Don’t miss out on these great learning experiences!

Japan York-Benimaru Foundation and 4-H Manitoba Homestay Program

In July 2019, ten 4-H Manitoba members and two chaperones traveled to Japan for two weeks.  This travel opportunity is open only to 4-H families who have hosted a Japanese student through our program.  If you would like a chance to travel in the future, consider hosting a Japanese student during our next summer program (dates to be confirmed).

4-H at Home Outreach Initiatives

The 4-H at Home Outreach Initiatives provide clubs, youth, and families – both within and beyond the     4-H program – opportunities to take part in relevant and engaging activities that focus on experiential learning, leadership and skill-building. Outreach Initiatives are packaged activity kits that include all curriculum and materials members and families at home, as well as clubs and their leaders, need to run hands-on exploration activities related to the topic.
