Since 1949 the Iowa 4-H Foundation has funded opportunities for Iowa's youth. From the creation of a statewide camping center to funding new curriculum and innovative programs, volunteer training, youth recognition and college scholarships to the completion of the Extension 4-H Youth Building on the campus of Iowa State University, the Iowa 4-H Foundation has raised the private resources necessary to make Iowa one of the top 4-H states in the country.
