IGNITE BY 4-H - TOO MANY OF AMERICA'S YOUTH LACK ACCESS TO OPPORTUNITIES THAT WOULD DEVELOP THE SKILLS THEY NEED TO SUCCEED IN LIFE, INCLUDING CONFIDENCE, TEAMWORK, CREATIVITY AND INNOVATION. AT 4-H, WE SEE THE RESULT WHEN YOUNG PEOPLE ARE INSPIRED TO FIND ANSWERS TO PROBLEMS AND EQUIPPED TO CREATE CHANGE. THEY BECOME LEADERS; THE NEXT WAVE OF INNOVATORS WHO INFLUENCE OTHERS AND LIVE THE IDEALS THAT FOSTER A VIBRANT AND CREATIVE ECONOMY. FROM 13 - 17 MARCH, 2024, OVER 1,000 HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WILL CONVENE IN WASHINGTON, D.C. FOR AN IMMERSIVE CONFERENCE EXPERIENCE - IGNITE BY 4-H. THIS FOUR-DAY EVENT WILL EMPOWER TEENS FROM DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS TO CONNECT AND FIND THEIR SPARK BY EXPLORING THE BEST 4-H HAS TO OFFER IN STEM, AGRISCIENCE, HEALTHY LIVING, CAREER READINESS AND EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING.
