October 28 2019 - 3:00PM
As part of ongoing efforts to support 4-H youth nationwide, Tractor
Supply Company customers and team members raised $967,681 for the
National 4-H Council during this year's Fall Paper Clover campaign.
Because of the campaign’s success, thousands of 4-H youth across
the nation will have the opportunity to participate in enriching
programs and valuable learning experiences thanks to the dollars
raised during the 12-day fundraiser.
This fall’s Paper Clover campaign, which ran from Oct. 9-20,
followed the 2019 Spring Paper Clover campaign running from March
27-April 7. Total funds raised for 4-H in Tractor Supply’s 2019
Paper Clover Campaign were more than $1.8 million.
“The Paper Clover program gives 4-H youth the opportunity to
learn and grow in subjects they are passionate about, and we are
thrilled that our fall Paper Clover campaign allowed us to raise
$967,681 to benefit our future leaders,” said Phil Reiter, vice
president of national and local marketing at Tractor Supply
Company. “We are proud to work with customers and team members who
are dedicated to serving 4-H clubs.”
The money raised during the event goes to scholarship funding
for numerous state-level 4-H programs, benefiting youth within the
state it was collected. The camps and leadership experiences for
scholarship recipients provide learning opportunities in animal
care, woodworking, government and networking practices.
“We count on programs like Paper Clover to support the
development of our students’ skills and passions,” said Jennifer
Sirangelo, president and CEO of National 4-H Council.
“Learn-by-doing programs help our youth become great leaders in
their communities and beyond, and we are incredibly grateful to
Tractor Supply for helping us provide new opportunities to 4-H
chapters across the country.”
In the 10th year of partnership between Tractor Supply and
National 4-H Council, the Paper Clover fundraiser has raised more
than $14.1 million for 4-H students across the country thanks to
the dedication and in-store involvement of Tractor Supply
customers, team members and local 4-H groups. The 2020 Spring Paper
Clover program will continue in March. For more information on the
