JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. - Missouri's young agricultural leaders are stepping up to make a difference in their communities.

Director of Agriculture Chris Chinn announced that 17 youth organizations across the state have been awarded 2024 Building Our American Communities grants.

In the KXCV/KRNW listening area, three 4-H Clubs made the list. They are the Foundation Creation 4-H Club and 40-Ville 4-H Club in Maysville, as well as the Shelby 4-H Club in Brookfield.

Each will receive $500 for their community service projects. Director Chinn emphasized the importance of nurturing a strong passion for agriculture among young people.

The projects, ranging from upgrades to existing facilities to community center enhancements, exemplify the leadership and generosity of Missouri's youth.
