Giving opportunities that make an impact
Statewide Support
Your gift to the 4-H Fund for Excellence will be directed to the most urgent needs and most promising opportunities of Oregon 4-H: developing programs to meet the needs of youth today. Gifts are also welcome for the 4-H Summer Conference held each year at Oregon State University and to help youth attend the 4-H National Conference.
Local Support
Oregon 4-H is present in all of the state’s 36 counties, offering programs in which youth do everything from raising rabbits to racing solar cars to running a business. To support youth in your community, make a gift to 4-H in your county; find the right fund by searching for “4-H Oregon [COUNTY NAME]” on our giving page.
2025 Beavs Give!
Every year, in partnership with Oregon State University, Oregon 4-H Foundation participates in “Beavs Give!”, also known as “Dam Proud Day!” to help raise money for 4-H programs like Summer Conference and also each of Oregon’s 36 counties.
On April 30, 2025, Oregon 4-H Foundation with the support of 157 generous donors and gifts, raised over $63,000 for local 4-H and county needs, and over $103,000 to support statewide 4-H programming including Oregon’s annual Summer Conference event!

Clovers for a Cause
Our first annual Clovers for a Cause fall fundraiser debuted in 2025! This event ran from October 2nd through October 11th and helped raise funds for state, national and international 4-H programming in Oregon. This event aligned with National 4-H Week.
Clovers for a Cause spotlighted Oregon 4-H’s National Events program which allows youth to grow and learn through their participation in events and leadership engagement opportunities at a national level. Throughout the 10-day fundraiser, we also highlighted 10 additional programs - one for each day!
Save the date for 2026! We plan to return the first week of October with the second year for Clovers for a Cause!
