Volunteer’s 4-H Pledge I pledge my Head to give children the information I can, to help them see things clearly and to make wise decisions.

I pledge my Heart to encourage and support children no matter whether they have success or disappointments.

I pledge my Hands to help children’s groups; if I cannot be a leader I can help in many equally important ways.
