BGCAS CLUB SERVICE PROJECT - DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. DAY OF SERVICE
Thursday, January 24, 2019
Leadership and Service has been a foundational area for the Boys & Girls Club Movement since the start, helping youth build critical leadership skills so they can contribute to the community in meaningful ways.
We are incredibly proud of our young leaders for continuing to embody Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s legacy and vision a “beloved community” by empowering individuals, strengthening communities, bridging barriers and creating solutions to social problems. Yesterday, in honor of Dr. King’s Day of Service, our Keystone & Torch Clubs, members of National Junior Honor Society chapters, and even our youngest Club Members collaborated on a Club Service Project- donating and providing food, snacks, and drinks for local Transportation Security Administration employees affected by the Federal Government partial shutdown. A special fa’afetai tele lava to our Club Parents who graciously donated to this effort and volunteered their time as well.
BGCAS thanks our TSA Officers and Administrators for their hard work and service to American Samoa.
