The Foundation is happy to announce the distribution of the spring Tractor Supply Company (TSC) Paper Clover Campaign funds. The 4-H and TSC partnership has completed seven Paper Clover promotions in the past four years raising a total of $106,678.73 in Kentucky to support 4-H.
The TSC Paper Clover Campaign is a nationwide, in-store fundraiser that benefits 4-H programming at the local, state and national levels. Through the partnership, Kentucky 4-H is able to raise funds and visibility in their communities.
The spring TSC Paper Clover Promotion was held May 8-19, 2013. Kentucky raised a total of $22,722.00 during the promotion. The Foundation is distributing $14,709.00 to County 4-H Councils as their share. Each of the past three promotions has exceeded $20,000.
70% of the funds raised go to Kentucky 4-H programs with 60%-65% coming back to the counties. The county 4-H programs use these funds to support club activities and supplies, transportation to 4-H events, awards, scholarships, and other 4-H related activities. These activities range in everything from animal science to robotics.
There are 47 TSC Stores in Kentucky. We want to congratulate the top 5 stores with the most funds raised:
1. London- Laurel County- $1,229.00
2. Hazard- Perry County – $1,066.00
3. LaGrange – Oldham County – $936.00
4. Williamstown –Grant County – $864.00
5. Mount Sterling – Montgomery County – $806.00
There are many people that made this campaign possible. We first want to extend a sincere thank you to Tractor Supply Company and their employees for their ongoing support of 4-H and Kentucky’s youth. Next we want to thank all the 4-H Agents, members and volunteers that helped make the spring campaign a success. And last, but certainly not least, we want to thank all of the donors who purchased Paper Clovers and their local TSC Store, your small donation has made all the difference! Be looking for the Fall TSC Paper Clover Campaign October 9-20, 2013. Thank you!
