Funding Request Process

The Trempealeau County 4-H Parent and Leaders Association works to provide educational opportunities to youth and adults in Trempealeau County 4-H. One of the ways that we provide these opportunities is through assisting with funding for county, state, regional, national, and international 4-H events or activities. We want
those involved in the program to understand our funding request process, and information about the process can be found below. If you have any questions, feel free to ask a board member (a list can be found on the Extension website).

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, the number of applicants, and the 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 for 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.

The 4-H Leaders Executive Board will evaluate the request, and the applicant is asked to follow the guidelines listed below. Currently, the Leaders Executive Board meets quarterly in March, June, September (annual Meeting), and December.
