Situations like these can seem so overwhelming … almost hopeless. But there is always hope.
The Unit Director reached out to the father and made arrangements for the girl to be part of our BGCOR bus route, knowing this would help keep both parents working and help them in their efforts to get back on their feet. Once the father heard that we also feed the kids and saw how excited his daughter was to come to the club, he broke down in tears. In his words, he was overwhelmed by “what a blessing a place like the boys and girls club is.”
That Club was there because our amazing donors help ensure that our doors remain open.
It’s true: When school’s out, Clubs are IN, because we know that open doors mean opportunities for a better future — a GREAT FUTURE — for that little girl and many others just like her!
