For almost 20 years, we have had an annual breakfast celebrating great futures.
Because that is the work we do.
We are not just a safe place for kids to be after school. We are not just a place to go to shoot some hoops or do homework. We are a place for young people to unlock their potential. No matter what barriers they face.
We make great futures possible.
I think that is worth celebrating, especially now.
In a tough year, I am proud of what we, as a club, have done. We added over $1 million in new programs to bridge gaps and support young people. The staff works every week with over a thousand kids online and hundreds every day in person. But there is still so much more to do. Kids have fallen behind – academically, socially, emotionally – and the clubs have a plan to help get them back on track.
Join us for a special online celebration of this work on Thursday, April 22nd at 8:00 a.m. at bgcop.org/breakfast.
I hope to see you there.
Best,
Erin Antrim
CEO
