What does the Boys & Girls Club mean to me?

When my little brother and I attended the Boys and Girls Club, it gave us a safe place to go and do activities after school.

I like theater now after doing a program on stage through the Club! Over all we had a lot of fun going to BGCFW. Today, I am married with two handsome little boys and I work at Bowen Center in Fort Wayne as a Skills Coach!
