Whereas, in every community, some boys and girls are left to find their own recreation and companionship in the streets. An increasing number of children are at home with no adult care or supervision. Young people need to know someone cares about them; and
Whereas, by instilling a sense of competence, usefulness, belonging, and influence, Boys & Girls Clubs offer that vital caring and more through programs and services that promote and enhance the development of boys and girls; and
Whereas, the Boys & Girls Clubs in South Carolina provide programs in character and leadership development, health and life skills, education and career development, sports and recreation, and the arts; and
Whereas, truly the "Positive Place for Kids," Boys & Girls Clubs provide a safe place to learn and grow while having fun; and
Whereas, currently, eighteen Boys & Girls Club organizations operate ninety club sites in South Carolina and provide services to more than fifty thousand youth each year; and
Whereas, the members of the General Assembly are pleased to learn that twelve young people from different Boys & Girls Clubs throughout the Palmetto State have been named 2015 South Carolina Youth of the Year for their respective clubs.
