- Active Living

Yes, we request that you apply for funds by January 31, 2025. The funding is available for all 4-H Saskatchewan Club or District projects and initiatives happening in this current 4-H Saskatchewan season. However, we do request funds be spent on projects and initiatives prior to November 1, 2025.
Funding is available at the 4-H Saskatchewan Club level and is not available for projects that support an individual 4-H Saskatchewan Club member-only, religious or political initiatives or third-party fundraising.
Funding will be approved on a per Club or District basis. If multiple Clubs or Districts wish to have the funding they must submit separate applications. If multiple Clubs' or Districts' projects are related, please indicate that on the application form.
UFA is dedicated to the communities we serve, and we believe that by providing direct funding to local 4-H Saskatchewan Clubs and Districts, we can make the biggest impact. Clubs and Districts can focus on the projects they are working on, instead of looking for ways to raise funds to support them
The photo release form is NOT required at time of application, but should your Club or District be approved/awarded the funds, you will be asked to have any Club or District members included in submitted photos, to have their parent/guardian complete the release form.
