4-H and Murdoch's
A Growing Partnership
Murdoch's and 4-H - a growing partnership in support of kids and the community! Murdoch's Ranch & Home Supply is working together with local 4-H youth in all of our markets, to assist them in "learning by doing," and interacting with the public. One of the greatest gifts that adults can give youth is a safe environment to learn in, and Murdoch's is proud to be a part of that environment.
Since April of 2005, Murdoch's has provided 4-H clubs with a yearlong list of opportunities to raise funds and have a little fun at our stores. As a forum for events, Murdoch's increases 4-H visibility to the public and offers clubs a safe place to hold clinics, exhibits and fundraisers.
Murdoch's - Proud Supporter of Montana, Colorado, Wyoming and Nebraska 4-H
Murdoch's has been committed to an ongoing relationship with 4-H in Montana, Colorado, Wyoming and Nebraska since our inception. Murdoch’s provides financial support through state 4-H Foundations, scholarships, and events which raise thousands of dollars for local clubs.
Murdoch’s is excited about the future of this 4-H relationship!

Today, 4-H involves more than 6.5 million young people. These people are from the city, suburbs, rural areas, farms, and everywhere inbetween. Staff members and volunteers educate 4-H and non 4-H youth through day camps, special interest programs, school enrichment, overnight camping, and the traditional 4-H clubs. 4-H youth development helps youth acquire the necessary life skills to meet the challenges faced during adolescence and adulthood, through a coordinated, progressive series of experiences that helps them to become socially, morally, emotionally, and physically competent.
4-H youth are more likely than others to report that they:
- succeed in school, getting more A's than other youth,
- are involved as leaders in their school and the community,
- are looked up to as role models by other youth, and
- help others in their community.
