Apple and 4-H Club

4-H is the largest youth development program in the US, with over 6 million members in every county and parish

Greater access to technology has been a cornerstone of 4-H’s recent expansion, partly because of Apple’s Community Education Initiative

The Ohio State University provided hardware, funding, scholarships, educational tools, and access to Apple specialists for the project

In cooperation with North Carolina State University, programming in North Carolina is scheduled to start this autumn

The bus is equipped with iPad stations that allow children to experiment with robotics, coding, creating music, and art

Only 10% of the 200 4-H project categories available in state are related to agriculture or animals

Through the 4-H Computer Science Pathways project, Apple started working with 4-H club and Rutgers University-Newark in New Jersey in 2021
