Description
The Boys & Girls Clubs of Benton Harbor have always taken on the responsibility of empowering the youth we serve to use their voices for positive change. With that goal in mind, our Inaugural Teen Summit will take place August 29 & 30, 2018.
During the first day of the summit, teens will take part in sessions and activities designed to bring about awareness to mental health. The second day, teens will participate in a community service project and a walk for Mental Health Awareness.
All proceeds from event registration will go toward sending our Keystone Club to the National Keystone Convention in 2019, for the first time since our founding in 1998.
In addition to registration, we also are accepting donations toward helping us achieve this goal.
If you have any suggestions, concerns or would like to volunteer at the Boys and Girls Club of Benton Harbor please contact us at 269-926-8766.
Keystone Club
Keystone Club is The Boys & Girls Club Movement’s ultimate teen program.
Keystone Clubs provide leadership development opportunities for young people ages 14 to 18. Youth participate in activities in three focus areas: academic success, career preparation and community service. With the guidance of an adult advisor, Keystone Clubs aim to have a positive impact on members, the Club and community.
BGCA hosts an annual National Keystone Conference for Boys & Girls Club teens that brings together members from all across the globe. Throughout the conference, Keystone members engage and socialize with peers, explore relevant issues, and develop skills to support and enhance efforts in their local Boys & Girls Clubs and communities.
