DEMING - As local Luna County 4-Her’s gathered around Pepper’s Supermarket this past week, the grocery store was a little more crowded than usual.
For the past several years, Luna County 4-H members have worked in conjunction with Luna County Farm and Livestock Bureau and the Luna County BorderBelles to purchase $1,300 worth of goods and then donated to the Luna County Healing House/Domestic Violence Shelter.
The Healing House provides the group with a shopping list of needed items and 4-Her’s shop for the desired groceries and items. Everything from fresh produce and meats, to bottled water and canned goods are purchased and donated.
This project instills in members the importance of community service and involvement.
4-H is a the largest nationally recognized youth organization. The goal of 4-H is to develop citizenship, leadership, responsibility and life skills through experimental learning programs through positive youth development approaches. Members ranging from 5-19 can participate in many activities, projects, and community service at local, state and even national levels.
