Ridgecrest;

The Southern Sierra Boys and Girls Club needs your help to keep it’s programs running. You might get a phone call from one of the kids (or myself) in the evening, calling asking for a donation. 100% of any donation will stay local, helping keep the local youth off of the streets and safe in the evenings. The Club programs include tutoring and homework help, camps during summer and winter and lots more. If you’ve never been in the Club, stop in and see the great work they’re doing. The Boys and Girls club is a non-profit organization. When you make a donation, you will get a reciept with a EIN # for your taxes, it is tax deductible!

Please help the Southern Sierra Boys and Girls Club. We need programs to keep the kids off the street. You will see lots of publicity over the next few weeks, asking for your support. Please help the club.

Who is trying to shut down the Boys’ and Girls’ Club, and why?

You’ll be seeing more press coverage, I believe next week? I don’t know the situation but I know they are in DIRE NEED of local support; and I think the Club is hugely important to Ridgecrest; we don’t have a whole lot to offer kids and teens!

How much donated money reaches the kids? How much goes to overhead,staff and such?

100% of the donation will stay at this local club on Warner. No one is getting paid to raise the money, the kids and a few others are raising the money by calling homes in the evenings. Keep your eye out for more press, coming soon.

Are You still Taking Donations? How can I volunteer to help?
