“Through the generosity of Poarch, we’ve been able to expand our 4-H programs. Currently, they provide scholarships to kids in every county in our state, which allows them to compete with their animals, and to develop valuable skills. They have been good neighbors, trusting partners, and really good friends.”
—Gary Lemme, Director, Alabama Cooperative Extension System
