Get Involved with Us Building Resilience and Encouraging Support: Grassroots Soccer Clinic Last week, we had a ball during the Life & Resiliency Skills Clinic! Our Club members showed up ready to learn how to handle life’s curveballs—building confidence, teamwork and resilience—one kick at a time. From games on the field to powerful discussions off it, it was all about sparking meaningful connections and growing stronger together. Experiences like these have a profound impact on our youth, and encourage difficult discussions in an open, supportive environment. BIG thanks to our new friends over at Grassroot Soccer for energizing our youth through meaningful conversation and plenty of movement! We are also incredibly grateful for the generous donation from NBC 6/Telemundo 51. Contributions like these directly impact the youth we serve and unlock opportunities for them to thrive. We cannot thank you enough for echoing our mission! Looking forward to building more together in the future! Learn More about Our Life & Resiliency Program Thank you, Ross!

Learn More DeLuca Foundation Training DeLuca Foundation Lab is a three-day collaborative learning experience designed to strengthen implementation of the Life & Workforce Readiness (LWR) and Academic Success frameworks across Boys & Girls Clubs supported by the Frederick A. DeLuca Foundation. Through peer learning, planning sessions, reflection, and strategy development, attendees deepen their understanding of program quality, data practices, intervention planning, and alignment between LWR and Academic Success outcomes. We had such a great time collaborating with our team and other teams at BGCA during this workshop! Community Connections with BSO A big thank you to Broward Sherrif’s Office (West Park, FL) for visiting our Carver Ranches Club and taking the time to educate our teens about safe driving practices. The session provided valuable information on the dangers of distracted driving, the importance of staying focused behind the wheel, and practical ways new drivers can stay safe on the road. As many of our teens prepare to become first-time drivers, these conversations are critical in helping them develop responsible habits that can protect themselves, their passengers, and others in our community. Thank you for supporting our Club
