I have been involved in fundraising for the Clubs for going on 3 years now. Every time I am able to spend time in the Clubs with the kids, I am amazed by the energy and the values being instilled in them from the club directors and staffs. The Clubs serve a valuable purpose for these kids where some of our other institutions have failed. Every kid deserves a chance and these clubs are giving it to them.
