Hello again, Yes, I will admit that the subject line is a shameless (and hopefully a bit comical) attempt to make you open this email! Here’s why: last month, I shared how kids feeling safe creates the required foundation for them to grow up well, and how that is a key outcome of the work…
Hi there, Usually when I email you, I’m sharing information or stories about our work to help you understand what Boys and Girls Clubs (BGC) is all about. Today, it struck me that to really understand our work, you should probably know that it is all intentionally designed and executed to achieve our vision: that all children…
Hello there! If it’s possible to have a happiness hangover, then that’s what we’re feeling over here at Boys and Girls Clubs today. Last night was an incredible night of “all things Boys and Girls Clubs” at our Club House Gala. We’re thrilled to have raised over a quarter of a million dollars (yup… that’s right!!!)…

Hi! In case you do believe in Santa, now would be a great time to make a gift to BGC! After seeing Santa and the Elves in our Clubs over the last few weeks, we have it on good authority that it’ll get you directly onto the jolly guy’s “nice” list! Meanwhile, it will also…
Hello there, As you might have noticed, the holidays are upon us. If you happened to read my last message, you’ll know that at Boys and Girls Clubs we’re focused on giving our amazing kids and families what they need, in a way that always protects their dignity. I think for many of us the…
