Tractor Supply gears up for Paper Clover drive
Tractor Supply Company is continuing its 9-year partnership with the National 4-H Council and gearing up for its Fall Paper Clover event.
The semi-annual fundraising campaign provides millions in funding to scholarships for 4-H youth.
From Oct. 3 to Oct. 14, Tractor Supply customers will be able to make donations at checkout or through online purchase. For in-store checkout, customers can purchase a Paper Clover.
Since its start in 2010, the partnership between Tractor Supply and 4-H has generated more than $14 million in funding. This past spring’s initiative raised more than $956,000, impacting more than 14,000 students, Tractor Supply said.
“Tractor Supply customers and team members have believed in Paper Clover’s mission from the beginning because they see the value 4-H brings to each of their communities,” said Christi Korzekwa, senior vice president of marketing at Tractor Supply Company. “Every Paper Clover donation supports the skills and interests of 4-H youth who are well on their way to becoming tomorrow’s leaders.”
Fundraising efforts from Tractor Supply’s Paper Clover event fund scholarships for numerous state level 4-H programs nationwide, with donations benefitting youth within the state it was collected. Scholarships are used for camps and leaderships conferences, where attendees learn everything from animal care and woodworking to networking practices and civic responsibility.
According to Jennifer Sirangelo, president and CEO of National 4-H Council, these hands-on learning opportunities empower kids to become true leaders in their life, career and community.
“When young people have the opportunity to learn-by-doing, they grow skills that allow them to pursue their passions and contribute to the world around them,” said Sirangelo. “Thanks to our partnership with Tractor Supply Company, its team members and the communities it serves, Paper Clover provides youth with the skills necessary to handle life’s challenges and develop into tomorrow’s leaders—what our communities and nation ultimately need to succeed."
4-H clubs are encouraged to contact a Tractor Supply store to participate during the in-store fundraiser. Those who participate with their local store are eligible to win a $100 Tractor Supply gift card through the Paper Clover Participation Sweepstakes. Based in Brent
wood, Tenn., Tractor Supply operates 1,725 stores in 49 states along with its e-commerce website.
