~To make the Best Better~

​El Sereno is a 4-H club in Santa Clara County, California, about an hour south of San Francisco. It is run entirely by youth and adult volunteers. Any youth (both boys and girls) ages 5 to 18 within Santa Clara County can join El Sereno 4-H for a yearly membership fee of $65 per youth member, plus an additional $30 per family fee. Financial aid is sometimes available, for more information please contact us.

​Our club boasts a multitude of 'projects' that specialize in different subjects, such as rabbits, guinea pigs, cooking, and craft making. Most projects meet once a month, but some meet more or less frequently. Members can join unlimited projects for no cost.

And my health to better living,
​For my club, my community, my country, and my world.

GIving   Back
El Sereno 4-H is organized and run by an Executive Board of elected youth members. Although the Board runs the club, parent volunteers work to facilitate the youths' goals. Projects specialized to different interests are led by youth and adult volunteers. It is this teamwork and mutual respect between youth and adults that makes 4-H so unique.​
Public speaking can terrifying for many people, but certainly not for our fearless El Sereno 4-Hers! El Sereno offers constant opportunities for members to improve their public speaking skills in a fun and engaging environment. It does not take long for even the shyest of members to come out of their shells. These skills will last for a lifetime.
In El Sereno 4-H, community service is one of our number one priorities. Members have a blast helping out members of our community and contributing to society. We believe that community service can be fun and rewarding. Encouraging acts of generosity early on in life encourages El Sereno members to be compassionate and selfless in later life.
