During Covid, I still had to work. I’m a single mom. I would’ve had no choice but to leave my 6th-grader home alone all day. Luckily, the Virtual Academy program at Boys & Girls Club saved me from stress and worry. My daughter was able to be in a safe place with a structured environment and caring staff. During her time as a Club member, my daughter has developed into an outgoing and independent young lady. She is on the path toward a successful future.
