Alumni Engagement

WE WANT TO STAY CONNECTED TO YOU!

Illinois 4-H Alumni Association

We want to create a lifelong connection to our 4-H alumni! Were you a member of the 4-H program? If so, you are one of 25 million Americans who share a unique bond. The Illinois 4-H Alumni Association was established in 2016 and is seeking to identify 4-H alumni to build a network throughout Illinois and beyond.

The mission of the Illinois 4-H Alumni Association is to create a lifelong, statewide community of 4-H alumni and provide increased opportunities for meaningful engagement to increase awareness, pride, participation, volunteerism and philanthropic commitment to Illinois 4-H.

We each have our own 4-H story. 4-H may have helped you launch a career path, or given you the skills to succeed in life. 4-H may have taught skills from science to leadership or prepared you for career and college readiness.

4-H continues to build responsible and caring adults who are more likely to give back to their communities. The Illinois 4-H program has a strong history of making an impact on youth, building leaders and preparing them for success.

We want to learn about your 4-H story!

Former Illinois 4-H Director Dr. Janice Seitz of Springfield has been selected as an elite inductee to the National 4-H Hall of Fame in October 2021.

"Seitz held 4-H leadership roles across the country and is known for her passion, dedication, enthusiasm, and love of empowering youth", says Lisa Diaz, University of Illinois Extension 4-H program leader.

Jan holds an endowment with the Illinois 4-H Foundation supporting character education.
