Board of Trustees

The Texas 4-H Youth Development Foundation was established in the early 1950’s as the “4-H Recognition Committee” to recognize superior service and achievement among 4-H members and volunteers. In 1962, the committee incorporated as the Texas 4-H Youth Development Foundation with a 501(c)(3) non-profit designation.
