OFFKM commits to, partners with 4-H clubs

Our Father’s Family Keeper Ministries is committed to the development of youth, particularly those within our southwestern Michigan coverage area.

     We have hosted six-week long, full-day summer enrichment programs for schoolchildren, organized after-school tutorials and continue to provide back-to-nature experiences for youth groups and others.  

     In the past few months, we have started supporting some other area agencies that work with youth, namely two local 4-H clubs:   Calvin 4-H and Rocky River Rider 4-H clubs. 

     One of the groups was down to one youth, but with OFFKM support and outreach, the club is now at a healthy, robust number of youth.

     Interested in all that either of these 4-H clubs has to offer?  (Membership and participation are free!)  Call 269.476.1257 or email [email protected].
