    For 75 years, 4-H House has served as a home-away-from-home for college women attending the University of Illinois. 4-H House women benefit directly from the generosity of alumnae and friends, like you, who share in the commitment to the generations of women who have lived and grown at 4-H House. Gifts are used to support scholarships, house improvements and programming for the women of 4-H House. Without your support these things would not be possible.

    Listed below are the current funds that support the women of 4-H House. If you feel strongly about a certain project or program not listed here, please use the link for the "Golden & Growing Fund" and, in the notes section, indicate where you would like your gift to be directed. Please note that contributions to the "Golden & Growing Fund" are not tax deductible. Gifts made for educational purposes, such as the scholarship funds and the Mary McKee Fund, can be used as a tax deduction.

    After each fund description you will have the opportunity to contribute online. You will be redirected to our secure PayPal site for your personal and credit card information.  Please note that gifts to the "Rachel Hamilton Memorial Scholarship Fund" should be made using the "Mary McKee Educational Fund" link.  Simply specify the "Rachel Hamilton Memorial Scholarship Fund" in the notes section.
