Paper Clover Fundraiser at Tractor Supply Stores – April 24-May 5
Tractor Supply proudly began their partnership with 4-H in 2010 and have since helped raise over $14 million through our Paper Clover fundraisers. The success of these campaigns has impacted over 69,000 students by providing them with hands-on learning experiences through projects in STEM, agriculture, healthy living, and civic engagement.

100% of funds raised through our two Paper Clover fundraisers directly benefit 4-H and the kids and teens they work with – 90% of donations directly support 4-H youth in the state it was raised, and the remaining 10% supports national 4-H programming.Please consider supporting our Sussex 4-H Program by visiting one of the following Tractor Supply Stores between April 24 – May 5:

  • Millsboro Tractor Supply – 28668 Dupont Blvd, Millsboro, DE 19966
  • Seaford Tractor Supply – 20952 Sussex Hwy, Seaford, DE 19973
