Denise Jennings of Harrison County was named a 2016 Frank Graham 4-H Volunteer Leadership Award winner by the Missouri 4-H Foundation on March 18. Jennings was recognized for her commitment to the University of Missouri Extension 4-H youth development program.

“It is our great pleasure to honor Denise with the Frank Graham Volunteer Leadership Award for her dedication to Missouri 4-H,” said Marla Tobin, chair of the Missouri 4-H Foundation Board of Trustees. It is volunteers like Denise who have made Missouri 4-H the quality experience for which it is so well-known, and we are indebted to her for her service.”

She served the Harrison County 4-H program as club leader and project leader for the Mitchellville 4-H Club for many years. She has since left her role as club leader but remains a volunteer and cheerleader for Harrison County 4-H.

The Frank Graham 4-H Volunteer Leadership Award recognizes volunteers who work to guide our youth. The award is named for Frank Graham, who served as director of the MU Extension 4-H Center for Youth Development from 1958 to 1975. During his 33 years of service, Graham was an avid supporter of volunteer leadership, believing that volunteers are the foundation of the 4-H program.
