Tractor Supply Company (NASDAQ: TSCO), the largest rural
lifestyle retailer in the United States, today announced its 2021
Fall Paper Clover campaign raised a record-setting total of
$1,311,670 for 4-H youth nationwide. For the second year in a row,
the Company matched any donation made on a TSC Personal Credit
Card, with no limit to the match, resulting in an incremental
donation of $45,812. Program contributions support 4-H members’
participation in camps, educational programs and leadership
experiences. All Paper Clover proceeds directly support 4-H youth
in the state in which it was collected.
“With every Paper Clover fundraiser, it is so heartwarming to
see how invested our communities are in supporting young people and
their ability to participate in 4-H’s invaluable learning
experiences,” said Christi Korzekwa, Senior Vice President,
Marketing at Tractor Supply. “This year’s fall campaign generated
unsurpassed, impressive results that will go a long way in the
development of empowered, confident and compassionate youth in our
communities.”
In 11 years of partnership, Tractor Supply has raised more than
$17 million for 4-H youth through the Paper Clover fundraiser,
impacting more than 120,000 students. The funds support
scholarships for camps and leadership experiences for 4-H youth
across the country. For those unable to attend in-person events,
4-H also offers 4-H at Home, Virtual Camp and Camp in a Box. This
year, the Tractor Supply Company Foundation donated an additional
$250,000 to the 4-H Tech Changemakers program, a new opportunity
empowering 4-H youth to take control of digital literacy and
economic prosperity in their community.
“We are thrilled to celebrate this record-breaking fundraising
year with our partner Tractor Supply,” said Jennifer Sirangelo,
president and CEO, National 4-H Council, the non-profit partner to
Cooperative Extension’s 4-H program. “It is truly inspiring to see
communities across the country believe in the power of 4-H to
create opportunities for youth to succeed and thrive. Thanks to the
Paper Clover fundraiser and Tractor Supply, more 4-H youth will
have that opportunity.”
