Having something to eat, it could be having blood after a car accident or for a transfu-sion, or it could just be having someone to talk to. One day does make a difference to thousands of people in our state! On Satur-day, October 12, 2013 the Texas 4-H and Youth Development Program will host it’s 3rd annual day of community service, ‘One Day 4-H 2013.’

What is one day in the life of a person? For some it can be the difference of a lifetime. Having something to eat, it could be having blood after a car accident or for a transfu-sion, or it could just be having someone to talk to. One day does make a difference to thousands of people in our state! On Satur-day, October 12, 2013 the Texas 4-H and Youth Development Program will host it’s 3rd annual day of community service, ‘One Day 4-H 2013.’

What is one day in the life of a person? For some it can be the difference of a lifetime. Having something to eat, it could be having blood after a car accident or for a transfu-sion, or it could just be having someone to talk to. One day does make a difference to thousands of people in our state! On Satur-day, October 12, 2013 the Texas 4-H and Youth Development Program will host it’s 3rd annual day of community service, ‘One Day 4-H 2013.’

What is one day in the life of a person? For some it can be the difference of a lifetime. Having something to eat, it could be having blood after a car accident or for a transfu-sion, or it could just be having someone to talk to. One day does make a difference to thousands of people in our state! On Satur-day, October 12, 2013 the Texas 4-H and Youth Development Program will host it’s 3rd annual day of community service, ‘One Day 4-H 2013.’

What is one day in the life of a person? For some it can be the difference of a lifetime. Having something to eat, it could be having blood after a car accident or for a transfu-sion, or it could just be having someone to talk to. One day does make a difference to thousands of people in our state! On Satur-day, October 12, 2013 the Texas 4-H and Youth Development Program will host it’s 3rd annual day of community service, ‘One Day 4-H 2013.’

Having something to eat, it could be having blood after a car accident or for a transfu-sion, or it could just be having someone to talk to. One day does make a difference to thousands of people in our state! On Satur-day, October 12, 2013 the Texas 4-H and Youth Development Program will host it’s 3rd annual day of community service, ‘One Day 4-H 2013.’

What is one day in the life of a person? For some it can be the difference of a lifetime. Having something to eat, it could be having blood after a car accident or for a transfu-sion, or it could just be having someone to talk to. One day does make a difference to thousands of people in our state! On Satur-day, October 12, 2013 the Texas 4-H and Youth Development Program will host it’s 3rd annual day of community service, ‘One Day 4-H 2013.’
