OUR IMPACT

We build up families.

A mother was overjoyed by the support she received during the holiday season and sent us a letter. She wrote:

“Thank you for your financial support during the holiday season. I’m deeply grateful not only for the help getting us through a difficult time, also for the great care you have provided to your student, Eric.

Often, I feel bad for having my child stay after school for hours, but knowing you are there for my son, helps me stay focused. It allows me to be productive at work as well as being able to take care of my ailing elderly mother.

Your kindness has made a huge difference in our lives, and I’ll never forget that. I appreciate everything you’ve done more than you’ll ever know. We hope you have a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year!

Thanks again.”

We build lifelines.

Jen is a mother raising a child during the pandemic and needed extra support for her child. This is her story:

“Thank you for stepping up and providing care at McDowell Elementary School during a scary part of the pandemic.

My daughter attended Nov 20th- April 21st and Summer 21

She was CRAZY angry 24/7 during the pandemic until a spot opened up at this site in Nov. She was BEYOND thrilled to find one of her best buddies in the class and to form new friendships. I’m sure it wasn’t easy navigating COVID cases, social distancing, parents, trying to keep kids from different school and different grades on their ZOOM schedules, and more.

Thank you for slotting her into Summer Camp when a space became available. Thank you also for being kind and bringing some light to my daughters days.”

We build connections.

“So grateful to Dede (and all other staff members) at Rohnert Park BGC who called me in the nick of time and offered my son a full scholarship to come back to the Club during the year. You all make our lives easier and we are so glad to have you guys after school!”

-Jamal (Club Parent)

 

We build communities.

“THANK YOU for making the choice to spend your days with children who look to you for comfort, laughs, homework help, keeping them safe, and conversation.

Your job is not easy, but I hope you find it extremely rewarding, especially when you have those days when you make a connection with one of your kids, that you hadn’t experienced before.

You are much appreciated!!”
