“Very few times in life can an individual make a real difference to a community- especially a child. Elaine and I have supported the Club since 1997. We ask you to join us, knowing you are investing in a financially disciplined effort that maximizes its dollars to help children. No child is ever turned away because of lack of financial resources. Your support of the Foundation is an investment in your community and its children. We will always support this wonderful place of hope, warmth, possibilty and caring. Children are our future; they are the foundation of tomorrow.” Greg & Elaine Walling “My experience with the club has been on going for many years. As my own children have gone through the summer camp and after school programs, they have developed into confident, productive young adults. Let us continue, as a community, to ensure that children can visit the Boys and Girls Clubs and learn it’s a good place to be.” Gayle Jones, General Manager Lindsay & District Chamber of Commerce
