HUNGER AWARENESS MONTH
The Boys & Girls Clubs of Broward County serve nearly 12,000 young people each year. Not only do the kids get Homework Help, Computer Access, Nutrition Guidance, a Hot Meal and a safe place to go after school, they also learn social skills, respect for others and self-esteem. BGCBC is always in need of support - donations, volunteers, etc. - to meet the needs of their Club Kids. Read more about the great work they do, and find the link to donate here.
The Women’s Breast & Heart Initiative educates the Community about Disease Prevention & Early Detection.
