| Proposal Description | The Boys & Girls Club of Beeville is a vital community resource. We care for more than 1000 youth a year ages 6-18 by offering them a safe, well supervised, drug free environment where they can spend their after school and summer leisure time hours. For 38 years, The Boys & Girls Club has been in the forefront of youth development, working with young people from disadvantaged economic, social and family circumstances. Our club has actively sought to enrich the lives of girls and boys whom other youth agencies have had difficulty reaching. We offer educational, social, vocational, physical education, outdoor environment and character development for the youth. We also offer after school tutorials, computer classes, arts & crafts, summer field trips, flag football, swimming lessons and the Spurs Drug-Free Youth Basketball league. The Boys & Girls Club of Beeville is dedicated to ensuring that all of our community’s children have access to our Club’s quality programs and services. We reach out to children from all walks of life in an effort to enhance their lives and positively shape their futures. All funds recieved will be used to support the programs we offer the youth of our club. |
