My Proposal

Since I was in second grade I have always been a member of the 4H organization. 4H is a voluntary educational program offered to all boys and girls regardless of where they are from, what color their skin is, or where they live today. My group was called, “Fighting Irish” which was for the people located around the small town of Ireland. I took drawing, leather crafting, and ceramics for my projects throughout my nine years of service. So for my public sphere day project I thought I would join collegiate 4H because of having been in 4H for nine years why not just continue being in the organization.
For the project I am going to talk and try convincing people why they should become a part of Collegiate 4H; explain to them how it is the largest out of school youth program in the United States, with having over seven million members and five hundred thousand teen and adult volunteers. Why would anyone not consider joining a well organized organization that has accepted constitution of its’ own which was accepted on February 21, 2002 is beyond me. A study done by Cathann A. Kress has shown that participation in the 4-H club has had a positive impact on children who stay involved for more than a year. On the public sphere day I am joining two of my friends at a table that will be set up on the sidewalk somewhere around the quad or outside the UC which is going to have brochures, pamphlets and promos that we will be handing out to a number of people to inform them why is would be inspirational to come and join us in 4H. The brochures and pamphlets will have all the information that one would need to know about what we do as a member of 4H also containing how to join the group on campus, and how to start volunteering around the city. They will go into more detail explaining what exactly the organization does for the community and for the member. Then they will explain what the four H’s stand for, hands, heart, health, and head.
