A local extension office will not have 4-H fees this year, all thanks to the 4-H Foundation.

Kendra Wallace, 4-H Coordinator for the University of Illinois Extension in DeWitt, Macon, and Piatt Counties, explains that the DeWitt County 4-H Foundation will cover the typical fees a 4-H member has to pay this year.

Wallace notes that the usual fee is only $20 for the whole 4-H year, but the DeWitt County 4-H Foundation is looking to play a bigger role in funding the program and helping the 4-H families and kids.
