Ontario 4-H Foundation

The Ontario 4-H Foundation was started in 1998 and is a federally incorporated charitable organization. Its' mandate is to receive and manage endowment funds and to encourage on-going partnerships that will ensure the long-term sustainability of 4-H Ontario. Income from the Foundation is used to train 4-H volunteers, develop timely new 4-H projects and provide funding for provincial 4-H events.

Trustees of the Ontario 4-H Foundation are responsible men and women, experienced in sound financial management, and committed to the future of 4-H in Ontario.

The relationship between the Ontario 4-H Foundation and the Ontario 4-H Council is a partnership! The Ontario 4-H Council, is a volunteer board which sets policies for 4-H Ontario. They then direct the small team of dedicated staff to administer the Ontario 4-H program. To operate the program, the Council solicits support annually (cash and in-kind) from public and private sector donors. In addition, local 4-H Associations seek financial support in their own community. The Ontario 4-H Foundation trust fund generates income to augment annual donations to the Ontario 4-H Council.
