My City February 2022

“I hope to not only continue serving youth and their families here in Flint and Genesee County, but also grow to serve more young people in unique ways.”

6. If a toy company made an action figure of you, what two accesso- ries would it come with? Great question! ey would de - nitely be my iPhone and AirPods. 7. What is one work-re- lated thing you hope to accomplish this year? I hope to not only continue serving youth and their families

here in Flint and Genesee County, but also grow to serve more young people in unique ways. I am really proud of the new workforce devel- opment, mental health and wellness programs that we were able to add during the last two years of the pan- demic. I know that there are so many families and kids who are not able to reach us at our two locations who could bene t from an organization

like the Boys & Girls Clubs. e best way to reach them is to meet them where they are, and that means more Clubs in more communities partnering with schools, churches, business owners, etc. Every $1 invested in Boys & Girls Clubs returns over $10 in future earnings and cost-savings to the community. Just imagine what we could do if we can continue to grow? ®
