4-H Canada is proud to announce a new partnership with Saputo Inc. (Saputo), together with their long-established brand, Armstrong Cheese. The partnership will see Saputo investing $660,000 over three years to give the next generation of dairy leaders and innovators the opportunity to positively impact their communities.
This national partnership will support the more than 4,200 youth members currently participating in 4-H dairy cow and goat programs across the country, providing them with grants, awards, and opportunities to attend provincial, national and international conferences to meet and share with other youth pursuing the same passion for dairy. The partnership will also help encourage youth members across the country to explore careers in the dairy industry through global internships and 4-H’s Careers on the Grow job search platform.
“4-H Canada is very pleased to partner with Saputo,” said Shannon Benner, 4-H Canada CEO. “We are delighted to have this exceptional opportunity to pool our networks, know-how and resources. Together, we are investing in youth to ensure healthy communities and positive change for our world.”
