Therefore, the horse club money can be managed separately while still being in the general 4-H account. Methods of fund raising will vary from county to county. Some counties will do one overall fundraiser and divide the money between programs within the total 4-H program. For their horse club alone. The amount of fundraising will vary from county to county as well.
Some counties have very little budget and generally ask the members to absorb costs of activities.
Other clubs have very successful fundraising activities and pay for all of the programs and activities of the horse club. Some counties will even raise enough funds to subsidize or pay for horse show or school for their 4-H'ers. Fundraisings, budgets and all other financial aspects of the Horse Club should be well discussed and coordinated by the county extension contact and the horse club leader. Funds and other gifts donated to 4-H can be considered by the giver as tax deductible gifts. However, be aware that the 4-H club is not exempt from paying sales tax.
