“We recognize the increased need for safe, fun, and affordable summer programs,” said Tauzzari Robinson, Chief Executive Officer at Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Flint.
Robinson added: “Even though kids are out of school, parents still have to work and handle their business. Summer should not be a time for boredom or worry. As a former Club member, the summer program played a huge role in my growth when I was young. At the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Flint we believe all kids deserve access to programs that keep them engaged, learning and healthy. Our Open House and Summer Sign-Up Days are the perfect opportunities to see how we can make a difference in a child’s life this summer.”
