Maine 4-H Program |
B.1.11 Mailing Lists
To protect the privacy of 4-H members and volunteers, Extension does not share the names, addresses or phone numbers of Extension program participants with anyone outside of Extension, other than to provide mailing labels of adult 4-H volunteers to National 4-H supply so it can mail its catalogs to 4-H leaders. And, with the permission of adult 4-H volunteers, we also share their names and contact information with people who inquire about joining a 4-H Club.
If anyone asks you to provide information about 4-H leaders or members, (for example, a business calls you with a "special offer for 4-H"), please do not give out information. Ask them to call your county Extension office, or get the information about the offer and send it to Extension. If appropriate, the information will be shared in a 4-H newsletter or by other some other means so that 4-H members and leaders can decide for themselves whether to pursue the offer.
