Kansas 4-H Program Fee Waivers: 2025–2026

Submitted by Sarah E. Maass

The Kansas 4-H Program Fee remains $15 per member. Fee waivers are available only for families with financial need, thanks to the generosity of donors through the Kansas 4-H Foundation.

Encouraging families to apply for a waiver without a true financial need reduces support for those who genuinely need assistance and limits funding for other vital 4-H programs.

Waiver requests are reviewed carefully and must be based on financial need — not simply convenience or preference.
