Hello Friend of the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Shasta,
The Autumn months often are seen as the season of gratitude. We would like to take a moment to give thanks and embrace the deep gratitude that we have for all of your outstanding support. You are helping us remain connected and committed to serving youth, their families, and our community during a time when they need us most. You are making a difference.
Next month, on December 1, we will once again be participating in North State Giving Tuesday. An event that draws upon the kindness and generosity of millions of people across the globe to support the causes they believe in. Our gratitude is overflowing for everyone who participated in last year’s event. As a supporter, you are giving youth a safe place where kids can still be kids during these uncertain times. A place where they are well-fed while their parents are at work. Where youth receive academic support, and assistance with their distance learning. Where social and emotional support is at the forefront, helping youth recover a sense of emotional safety and community that may be lost during these challenging times. You are also supporting confidence, creativity, and self-esteem during a time when youth need it most.
Learn more below about how, together, we can continue to create a stronger community for each child and every family.
Thank you all again. From everyone at the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Shasta, we are wishing you and your family all the best.
With the utmost appreciation,
Noam Zimin,
CEO

Celebrated on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving, Giving Tuesday inspires and harnesses the generosity of millions of people across the globe to support the causes they believe in and to give back to the communities in which they live. The goal is to create a massive wave of generosity that lasts well beyond that day, and we invite you to join in on this global day of giving to support the youth of our community.
