The campaign has now expired but it's not too late to support this charity.
Visit the charity's profileBoys & Girls Clubs of the Tennessee Valley works to serve eighteen Clubs in 4 counties: Blount, Knox, Loudon, and North Anderson. We implement a multifaceted approach to serving our Club youth to ensure they will graduate with a plan for post-secondary education, live a healthy lifestyle, and become a contributing member of our society.
The COVID-19 pandemic brought about a unique set of circumstances for everyone; however, BGCTNV was quick to initiate a plan to serve Tennessee Valley youth and their families. The Essential Workers Childcare Assistance Program helped essential workers by providing free childcare during the pandemic. Below is a testimony from a Club member's mother.
I am a single mother with a 9-year-old daughter in the 4th grade. The Essential Employee Daycare Assistance Program has helped me tremendously during these trying times of COVID-19. If I had to take off work while her school was recessed for COVID-19 we would not be able to survive. There was a giant weight lifted off me knowing that she has somewhere safe that she can go while I go to work. I appreciate the program for making it possible for me to work through the pandemic without worrying about how I could both work, and provide a life for my daughter and me.
However, the fight is not over yet, and we could still use your support to help us better serve our Club youth and their families. Please consider making a gift this holiday season to Boys & Girls Clubs of the Tennessee Valley, so we can continue doing Whatever It Takes to Build Great Futures .
