Boys and Girls Club
*This program is not currently running but will resume in fall semester*
What is Boys and Girls Club?
The Boys and Girls Club allows students to serve lower-income families in the community. When you volunteer with the Boys and Girls Club, you will be able to participate in various initiatives such as putting together meal boxes with basic pantry items year-round, setting up for and serving at an annual dinner for donors, and volunteering for the annual Sub-for-Santa project: a temporary Christmas assistance program that matches sponsors with families looking for help and gives gifts to children. Join us if you are eager to make an impact on children and families in the area!

Being involved with the Boys and Girls club program has honestly been such a game changer for me. I have been able to get outside of myself and have been able to develop meaningful relationships with the kids at the site I volunteer at. On top of that, I feel that I have been able to make a difference in these kid's lives and that's made me really happy!
