I am always impressed with the impact the Boys and Girls Club of Coastal Carolina has on the youth of Eastern North Carolina. It is a fantastic organization and I have learned a great deal since I started volunteering. The three Boys and Girls Clubs under the umbrella of the Boys and Girls Club of Coastal Carolina give the children a safe, caring environment that nurtures and mentors tomorrow's adults. I've seen how grateful these kids are for that, just last week at our local Youth of the Year Competition. They are so grateful to the Boys and Girls Clubs that they are members of - but really isn't this something we/society owes them? Thank goodness the Boys and Girls Club organization feels these children deserve a chance and want to provide it.
The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
The Youth of the Year competition we have locally. When a Boys and Girls Club youth, explains his or her words how important the club has been to their grades, self-esteem, family life, dreams and aspirations, you cannot deny the fantastic results of this organization!
Ways to make it better...
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
Have more people participate in Youth of the Year.
MY ROLE:
Board Member & I volunteer on the Havelock Boys and Girls Club advisory board.
