Whereas, 4-H is the largest youth development organization in the United States, supporting nearly six million young people across the country; and

 

Whereas, 4-H helps young people become confident, independent, resilient, and compassionate leaders; and

 

Whereas, 4-H is delivered by the Clemson Cooperative Extension Service to youth from five to eighteen years of age since 1908; and

 

Whereas, South Carolina 4-H has over eighty thousand 4-H members across five program areas, Agriculture and Animals; Civic Engagement and Leadership; Healthy Lifestyles; Natural Resources; and Science, Engineering, and Technology; and

 

Whereas, the 4-H network of nearly three thousand five hundred volunteers and forty professionals provides caring and supportive mentoring to all members of 4-H, helping members to grow into true leaders, entrepreneurs, and visionaries; and

 

Whereas, this resolution hereby recognizes four members of the 4-H Youth Development team that have each contributed twenty-five years or more of dedicated service to the youth of our state: Mrs. Sherry Davis-Livingston, Mrs. Shannon Herndon, Mrs. Terri Sumpter, and Mrs. Gayle Williford; and

 

Whereas, "4-H Day" recognizes the important role of 4-H in youth development and education and encourages all citizens to see the significant impact that 4-H and its members have made and continue to make by empowering young people with the skills needed to lead for a lifetime.  Now, therefore,

That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, recognize March 5, 2024 as "4-H Day" in South Carolina, honor Mrs. Sherry Davis-Livingston, Mrs. Shannon Herndon, Mrs. Terri Sumpter, and Mrs. Gayle Williford for their twenty-five years of dedicated service to the youth of our State, and commend State 4-H Teen Council and the 4-H program team on their numerous accomplishments over the 2023-2024 year and for the leadership and impact they have demonstrated.
