The Boys and Girls Club had a positive impact on me during my formative years. I emigrated to the United States as a young child and had parents who worked around the clock. The Club provided a safe environment for me to go after school before my parents came home from work. Now, I want to give something back and help create positive experiences for the children in our community.
