4-H Charters are very important for a 4-H Club, or chartered project, to have completed.  This process should not be taken lightly and should involve all members of the 4-H club.  It is a great opportunity to go over your club’s goals and to work as a team.  Below is some helpful information for your club in completing the charter process.  Charters and the Annual Financial paperwork are now available on the state website. Use the link below.

If a 4-H Club or Group is chartered that means that paperwork is filed by the 4-H Program Coordinator so that they remain a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.  Being a 501(c)3 this means that donations given to chartered 4-H clubs or groups are tax deductable.  Below you will find a sample donation record and receipt form and a sample tax donation letter receipt that you should utilize if your chartered 4-H club or group receives a donation.

The Trempealeau County 4-H Leaders Executive Board includes money in their budget to help defray some costs of 4-H educational trips or activities in which Trempealeau County 4-H members and leaders participate. The amount the Association can contribute in a given year depends on the success of fundraising efforts, the amounts spent in other budget areas, and the number of applicants and level of requests.

A “Funding Request Form” has been developed for use when an individual or group is requesting monetary support. Only 4-H Sponsored Events will be considered for reimbursement. Use of the form will provide a consistent, concise approach to obtaining information. Once the Committee engages in discussion relative to the request, the requester may be asked to leave the meeting and will be notified by email of the Committee’s decision.

For various projects, there are extra requirements that the youth involved in the project need to participate in.  One of those extra requirements is YQCA and the other is often proof of attendance at extra educational events.  Use the form below for your proof of attendance at these extra educational events. These are due on July 1 to TrempCAC@outlook.com
