Grant Report
EXAMPLE
4-H Ambassador: Ansley Ambassador
County: Here
Issue: Operation Military Kids
Funds Received from Grant: $55.50
Other Funds Received: The Boys and Girls club provided note cards and
pens as well as classes on how to write letters. Here 4-H Club provided
seniors to assist and the class on deployment. The VFW also donated two
rolls of stamps to use to write letters in the future.
Funds were used to:
I spent $55.50 at the post office to buy 150 37 cent stamps. The receipt is
attached. We had 8 senior 4-H’ers help with the program and 12 Boys & Girls
club members so each member wrote at least one letter and some wrote two
so that all 25 kids on the list got a letter. We will use these stamps to write
letters again two more times. The VFW stamps will help us write letters in
the next few months.
Number of people involved in the program/activity:
The program included:
8 senior 4-H’ers: 2 boys, 6 girls, 5 are white, 1 Asian and 1 black
12 Boys & Girls club members: 9 boys, 3 girls. 2 were Hispanic and 10
where black.
2 Boys & Girl Club adults helped us. Both were black men.
Our military pen pals are 10 boys and 15 girls. We don’t know anything
more about them except they are all in middle school.
The program/activity was successful because:
The senior 4-H’ers had lots of fun meeting with the middle schoolers at the
Boys and Girls club. The Boys and Girls club kids seemed to enjoy the
workshop. They asked a lot of questions and talked about their friends who
had relatives overseas. They also laughed a lot during the games. After the
activity, they all wanted to know when we would come back. The Boys & Girls
club leader told us that this was the most active he had seen the kids in
Homework helper time.
The Boys and Girls club kids asked for lots of help writing the letters. About
half of them wanted to write a draft first and then copy it over. Some were
nervous about what to say in the letter. It was neat to see my fellow 4-H’ers
know how to help them write the letters because of what I had taught them
about the deployment cycle before we started this.
I asked the Boys and Girls club leader to ask the members if they got
letters back. We have already had two members get replies from their pen
pals. They have already written again even though we haven’t meant.
I think another benefit of the program is that we will work with the Boys
and Girls club more.
If the program included outreach to military families, describe the impact
on this specific audience:
This project is entirely geared toward military families. The ones we are
writing that we have heard from are very excited to have a new pen pal.
