BUILDING for the FUTURE
Thousands of young men and women
each year participate in the Junior
Leadership Program, which is designed to
encourage 4-H Club Members to
(,
develop those leadership qualities essential
to progress and wholesome community
life ... to produce leaders from the
ranks of club members . . . and
to develop opportunities for service and
helpfulness to others.
We of United Gas believe that
sponsorship of the 4-H Club Junior
Leadership Program is one way in which
we can accept our obligation of
good corporate citizenship in the Gulf
South where our company operates.
