In order to have the best programs and service to the youth and our community, staff development is key. Many opportunities are offered through Boys and Girls Club of America at minimal cost (i.e., $50.00 and/or hotel provided), however we must get staff to the training site, often in Atlanta. Therefore, travel costs range from $200 – $500, depending on location. Training opportunities offered are: Finance and HR Director’s Academy; Club Director’s Academy; Youth Development Professional Institute (line staff); Midwest Conference, Area Council, Youth of the Year, and so much more!
Our members spend time in the community for many reasons including service projects; events (i.e., Light’s Fantastic Parade); field trips; college career days; tours, etc. We are wanting to have strong visibility when our youth are in the community learning and being strong role models for other youth. Club shirts help with the visibility. As a sponsor, your logo can be placed on the t-shirt. Shirts are at a low-cost thanks to the support of local t-shirt vendors, at $6.00 each. Recognition on website, Facebook and Instagram, wherever the youth go and window cling.
Amount of support is decided by the business.
It costs the BGCSI $344.24 to support one Club member, parents are asked to pay a yearly $20.00 membership fee and no child is turned away for inability to pay. Your business can sponsor a child. This will include a thank you from a Club member, who will send you an update for a year on how he/she is doing and what the Club means to them. Your business logo will be featured as a business sponsor on our website (home page and sponsors page with a link to your business website); Facebook and Instagram announcement; window cling.
