| Impact Report | The home economist offered seven additional programs in the area of consumerism/financial security. These programs were delivered as Extension Leader’s Trainings, Make-N-Take It Workshops, and to a PEO Chapter. All programs were open to the public. Hands-on program topics included making inexpensive ornaments and gifts for the holiday, learning to crayon appliqué, creating birthday books, and designing inexpensive tablescapes. Over 475 participants gained personal finance concepts through these programs which resulted in knowledge gained and increased savings throughout the year. The crayon appliqué quilt made by the Extension Club members was donated to the Chaves County 4-H program, tickets were then sold and the quilt was raffled off. The proceeds earned were donated to the UNM Cancer Research Project. This community service project, sponsored by the State 4-H Officers earned over $800. A total of 1000 Leader’s Training booklets on each of these subjects were distributed at the Eastern New Mexico State Fair, along with a display booth. |
