Please Support CCE-Niagara!

We have had many great accomplishments this past year at CCE Niagara. We educated new cohorts of Beginning Farmers and Master Gardeners, mentored over 450 4-H youth, saw almost 20,000 people at the Niagara County Fair, and we saved the Milk Bar! All our accomplishments could not have been successful without the support of our donor and volunteer community. As we look to the future, we are asking you to give your support once again. Your gift will fund quality educational programming benefitting the children, families, and communities in Niagara County.

As you know, CCE Niagara provides residents at every age and skill level with a wide range of educational opportunities rooted in cutting-edge research. Opportunities for learning include everything from 4-H and STEM to skill building and education for residents of every age in nutrition, farming, gardening, environmental health, and more. Our local team of experts - including hundreds of volunteers - is embedded in the community and works side-by-side with individuals and organizations to teach skills that can be easily applied in real life.

Please contribute a gift today in order to help us fund our future goals.

Remember, CCE is a 501(c)(3), tax-exempt organization and your contribution will be tax-deductible to the full extent of the law. 100% of your donation will go directly towards supporting our educational programming. 


We use a secure process for all online donations. 

Thank you for your support!

SPONSOR A PERSONALIZED FAIR BENCH: 

Would your family, club or business consider sponsoring a bench that will be used during the Niagara County Fair? Sponsoring a bench is a great way to support 4-H and the Fair while increasing seating areas across the fairgrounds.

All benches come with the option to add personalization to the top rail. Bench sponsors can add a business name, website, 4-H Club, and “in memory of…” message, or even a short quote! Orders must be received by June 1, 2022 to ensure your bench will be ready in time for the Fair.

Testimonials

"CCE Niagara is our go-to place for farm tips. They have done so much to help us as beginning farmers. CCE specialists there have provided us with practical knowledge for raising and marketing healthy fruits and vegetables (both in fields and high-tunnels), allowing us to grow our family business into a popular CSA program. They hold informative workshops, like the farmers market vendor workshop that significantly improved our farm market display, which now attracts more customers. As our farm business grows, we really look forward to creating some value-added apple products in their future community commercial kitchen. We thank them for all their help!"
-Rich Woodbridge

"In 4-H I have learned about chickens and rabbits and the parts of their bodies. The best part of 4-H is being with friends while showing animals. I am now taking Archery, and it is leading me into Forestry Workshop. Maybe in the future I'll go to law enforcement school and become a park ranger or DEC officer. -4H is helping me set a career path for myself."
-Nicholas, age 12
