(BEDFORD) - The National 4-H Council and Tractor Supply Co. are partnering to bring the 2014 Paper Clover Campaign to Bedford.
This is the fifth year the two organizations have collaborated to help support the local and state 4-H programs.
The campaign starts Wednesday and will last until Oct. 19. Shoppers who visit Tractor Supply Co. will have the choice to purchase paper clovers for $1 or more when they check out, and all funds raised will be donated to the Lawrence County 4-H.
Last year, across 48 states, the 4-H Paper Clover Campaign provided more than $1.4 million to 4-H across the country. All proceeds raised directly benefit 4-H, with 70 percent of funds being returned to state and local 4-H programs.
The effort has provided direct support for local camps, after-school programs and other activities, and has granted scholarships to these events that youth can explore their interests in everything from animal science to robotics.
