photos by Alex Hafizi The Boys & Girls Club of America has been striving to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens. In doing so, they have provided the country’s youth with a safe place to grow and learn, ongoing relationships with caring, adult professionals, life-enhancing programs and character development experiences, hope, and opportunity. Boys & Girls Clubs of America believes that character development, the basic building block in personal development, should be an integral aspect of every Club program and activity. On Saturday June 2, the 41st annual Boys & Girls Club of Santa Clarita Benefit Auction, featuring WWII veterans, was held to raise funds for the club. The event went from 5p.m. to midnight, and in that span of time, it managed to raise nearly $100,000. Thanks to the generosity of the bidders, the club now has a large amount of funds to benefit the children! |
