Create and donate pillowcases to hospitals, children's hospitals, shelters, or assisted living facilities. All 4-H'ers are encouraged to make fun pillowcases and collect and deliver them in their home counties. Remember to contact the organization to see if they have any requirements or guidelines. Organization options may include:

Your local hospitals
Local Women's or Homeless Shelters
Assisted Living and Nursing homes in your area
UC Davis Health Children's Hospital - Child Life Program pillowcases
Ryan's Case for Smiles - CA chapters
Claire Parker Foundation Pillowcase Project

and many, many others!

Share your results

Please let the SFR committee know how many pillowcases were made and donated by completing the 2024 SFR Community Service survey. We hope to announce it at State Field Day or during the Awards Ceremony!

Resources for County Fashion Revue events

Counties may offer categories at the local level in addition to the State Fashion Revue categories. Only the State Fashion Revue categories will qualify for State Fashion Revue. Counties may allow members to enter more than one category at the local level. If so, each entry must contain different garments, shoes, and accessories. A garment worn in one category may not be entered in a different category.
