    International 4-H / Study Abroad

     

    Oklahoma 4-H has partnered with Feed The Children to take 4-H members, who are planing to attend college, to Nicaragua to practice many of the life skills they have learned throughout their 4-H career. This study abroad program gives 4-Hers the opportunity to practice and apply their skills in helping those less fortunate.

     

    Our projects are centered around a Nicaraguan orphange. At the orphangane, we will plant a garden and develop sustainable projects that not only provide food and resources, but also provide practical experience for the children. The project is a developing agricultural operation. Potential projects include; goats, pasture improvement, water conservation, and educational programs for the children.

     

    If you are interested, we can find a project for your skills.
