4-H News Budget Cuts – Elimination of 4-H Programs Thank you to everyone who has shown their support of 4-H programs throughout the great state of Georgia. We have all been moved by your kind words of support. The budget has been passed and although the cuts are not as bad as originally thought, there will, unfortunately, be office closings and layoffs according to the College of Agriculture. We do not know who will be affected but we will certainly let you know when we find out. Again, thank you for your ongoing support!
