Giving - Impacting the Future

Since 1905, the Cooperative Extension Service has strived to improve the economic well-being and quality of lives of all Arkansans through its non-formal educational programs. A component of the University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture, the Cooperative Extension Service has four primary program areas for which state and county faculty and staff build their curriculum and educational initiatives:

1) 4-H Youth Development,
2) Agriculture,
3) Community and Economic Development and
4) Family and Consumer Sciences.

Whether in a classroom, a boardroom, a field or a home, individuals and communities are experiencing the positive impact of the educational programs.

Historically, these programs have been funded primarily through county, state, and federal appropriations and grants. As federal funding becomes more competitive in nature and as county and state funding are directly impacted by economic conditions, the role of private, philanthropic giving moves to the forefront in helping the University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture extend itself in meeting the complexities of its constituencies: the communities and people of Arkansas.

Every dollar donated helps move the University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture forward.
