It Just Takes One
Purpose
Each child
that walks through our doors is unique. One may come from a loving,
single-parent family. One may speak little English. One may not have a
home. At Boys & Girls Clubs of Springfield, it is our job and our mission
to direct each of these youth toward positive roles in society. We fulfill
this mission one child at a time.
We have the power to impact the life of each and every young person we serve. Therefore, we want to entice young people to come to our Club, take part in our exciting programs and be inspired to come back. In order to do so, Boys & Girls Clubs need the generosity of local foundations, corporations and individuals.
Definition of It Just Takes One
It Just Takes One is an exciting new fundraising initiative, one that will
create a set time of year for annual giving to Boys & Girls Clubs of
Springfield, combining the power of broad-scale marketing with personal,
one-on-one solicitations by volunteers.
