4-H Youth Development

For Youth:
4H Youth logo4-H is one of the oldest and most effective programs of non-formal education in Hawai‘i. The 4-H classroom is a world of real hands-on projects and demonstrations, leadership development, and promotes responsible citizenship.

The O‘ahu County 4-H Youth Development Program offers a broad range of programs and learning experiences that sets to meet the needs and interests of local youth — urban, suburban, and rural — from ages 5 to 19.

For Adults:
4-H can't succeed without the dedication of adult volunteers who donate their time, energy and enthusiasm to make 4-H programs come alive in their community. Our volunteer leaders help shape their members into responsible, self-directed and productive members of society.
