As we wrap up what was an incredibly successful Boys & Girls Club Steak & Burger Fundraiser, we are reflecting on the overwhelming support and generosity that each of you all showed. It is with a heart full of gratitude that we thank you for your incredible contributions, both big and small, which made the event not just a success, but a memorable occasion that truly showcased the spirit of our community.
This event was more than just a fundraiser; it was a testament to the power of unity and the impact we can make when we come together for a noble cause. Your enthusiasm, from volunteering to donations, to simply spreading the word, played a pivotal role in surpassing our goals and expectations. The funds raised are going directly to supporting the myriad of programs we offer, ensuring that our youth have the resources, mentorship, and safe spaces they need to thrive.
Let us also take a moment to acknowledge the hard work of the organizers and volunteers, who put in countless hours to make the fundraiser an event we will all remember fondly. Your dedication is the backbone of our success, and your passion is the light guiding our way forward.
Thank you once again for your unwavering support. It is because of you that we can look towards the future with hope, knowing that our community stands strong, united in the cause of nurturing and empowering our youth. We are deeply grateful for your generosity and look forward to continuing this journey together.

The Bee the Boss Program is made possible through a partnership with All In Credit Union. This program teaches members business principles in owning, running and managing their own business.
Members pick a different item each year to earn profit, learn how to operate the business, market their product, write the business plan and learn how to build and maintain a good credit.
The BEST part about this program is that the members get to choose what to do with their profits. In previous years, they have donated it back to the community to several other local non-profits!!
Please stop in on Thursday, May 2nd from 10:00 am-2:00 pm.
