Collapse ▲A simple act of kindness can spark a ripple of good—and you can be the spark! Beginning on 4-H For Good Day (October 9) to the highly anticipated release of Wicked: For Good on November 21, we’re celebrating your power to make a difference.
Just like Elphaba and Glinda in Wicked: For Good, your choices can change the world. Whether it’s writing a heartfelt note, helping a neighbor, or brightening someone’s day, your good deed matters.
This challenge is a chance to show the world what it means to be 4-H BeyondReady—ready to lead with heart, take action with purpose, and inspire others through kindness.
How to Join the #4HForGood Challenge:

Big or small, every act counts! Help out, give back, or simply show someone you care. - Share Your Heart Hands and Post Online
Share your heart hands, write a short post about your good deed and share on social media using hashtag #4HForGood and tag @4H. - Challenge Your Crew

Tips for Making Impact:
1. Choose what works for you. Choose something that fits your schedule and comfort level.
2. Get personal. Whether it’s a colleague, neighbor, or stranger, a thoughtful gesture can go a long way.
3. Do it your way. Volunteer, donate, create, or simply say thank you—pick what fits your strengths and interests.
4. Bring others in. Invite your friends, coworkers, or community group to take part—it’s even more powerful together.
5. Amplify kindness. Share your act online or inspire others quietly. Either way, you’ll spark a ripple of good.
The upcoming film Wicked: For Good, starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, explores themes of friendship, empowerment, and personal growth—values that align perfectly with the 4-H spirit. As Elphaba and Glinda navigate their paths in Oz, we’re inviting you to walk your own path of kindness in your community.
Let’s build momentum from October 9 through November 21, when Wicked: For Good hits theaters. Together, we’ll show the world what 4-H youth can do when we come together for good and inspire others to do the same.
What happens after November 21?
The spirit of kindness doesn’t end with the campaign! We hope you’ll keep the ripple going year-round—because doing good never goes out of style.
