“My favorite part of working for BGC is the relationships that we get to build; not only with our club members, but other youth in the community, other entities in the surrounding communities, and people involved in the Boys & Girls Club movement across the country.”
“I have been with the Boys and Girls Club since the summer of 2013. During my time as a Program Aide, I implemented programs for Character and Leadership. Some of my favorite program activities were Random Acts of Kindness, SMART Moves and the Bully Project. In my years at BGC, I have grown from my position of a Program Aide to the first full-time Program Aide and now the Program Coordinator. My favorite part of the work that we do is watching the kids grow up into young adults.”
