I am aware of the unique challenges youth face in rural America today. It is my mission to provide our Boys & Girls Club members with the tools, resources, and support they need to overcome those challenges and to lead immensely successful lives. My goal is for every child who enters our club to leave equipped with positive connections, big goals for their lives, and the confidence and resources they need to achieve them.”
