The 4-H Pledge is:

I pledge…

my head to clearer thinking,

my heart to greater loyalty,

my hands to larger service, and

my health to better living

for my club, my community,

my country, and my world.

What does “I pledge my head to clearer thinking” mean?

“I pledge my head to clearer thinking” means to make good decisions. It also means that you need to think ahead so you have time to plan what you’re going to do. Solve problems by working them out to the best of your ability and make sure you continue to use your knowledge every day to make good decisions.

When you recite the 4-H Pledge, really think about what you’re saying and put your words into action!
