Welcome

4-H House is a cooperative sorority that serves as a home away from home for 55 women at the University of Illinois in Urbana, Illinois. The cooperative was founded in 1934 by state 4-H leader Mary McKee with 16 girls joining a cooperative living environment to reduce expenses. In 1980, 4-H House joined the University of Illinois Greek System, and the opportunities available to 4-H House women were broadened. We are involved in numerous activities throughout the year, including Little Sister and Little Brother Weekends, Mom's and Dad's Day Weekends, Formals, Exchanges with Fraternities, and Philanthropic Activities.

To be considered for membership, women must have a minimum of three years of 4-H club or group membership OR a minimum of three years leadership experience in a widely recognized youth organization, such as FFA. To learn more about how to become a member of 4-H House, contact [email protected].
