CEO Corner
 

Over the past 8 months, we’ve been on the front lines providing for youth and families in Moore County.  One thing that we have learned from this experience is that there is nothing more important than being heard, when you feel no one is listening.  For our Club members and families as well as ALL youth and families in Moore County, we hear you loud and clear.  While, we’re all thankful the return to school has gone extremely well, we know there are a lot of challenges families face regarding virtual learning.  Over the last couple of weeks, BGCS stepped up to the plate to provide much needed support for remote learning for those who need us the most.  Families can sign up for this support here: https://sandhillsbgc.org/clubevents/. We’re all in this together!

Sponsor A Child, Change A Life!
Many of our kids need financial assistance to cover the cost of Club membership. Your gift of $1,179.97 (or $98/month) sponsors one child for the entire school year and summer. Without this help, members might not have access to:

  Computers and High-Speed Internet – Because of disparities in the availability of technology, many kids are unable to do schoolwork at home and must rely on the Club.

  Healthy Meals - Many parents are still out of work, leading to greater food insecurity. Oftentimes, the meals kids receive at the Club are the only ones they have all day.

  Encouragement, Sense of Purpose – Club kids receive the nurturing and support many so desperately need. Our trained youth development professionals offer educational assistance, formative guidance, and leadership skills necessary for kids to become productive, caring members of our community.

You can help change a life by Sponsoring A Child TODAY!  Monthly options are available!

Our goal is to ensure 190 Club members are sponsored. We currently have 119 Club kids sponsored, so we are well on our way to meeting our goal. Won't you consider Sponsoring A Child, perhaps in honor of a friend or loved one, for the holidays?!
 
 
Whatever it takes...
