Torah Congregation Volunteers Spend Summer Reading at Dixie Manor
Boca Raton, FL – Volunteers from the B’nai Torah congregation TLC (Tzedakah, Learning & Chesed) Program are spending the summer at Dixie Manor’s VPK program. Dixie Manor is low income housing run by the Boca Raton Housing Authority. More than 350 people of all ages and ethnicities live there.
TLC Program volunteers, who are comprised of neuro typical as well as neuro divergent high school students, college students, retired teachers, and authors, spend hours a day reading to the children.
According to Summer Faerman, Director of the TLC Program at B’nai Torah Congregation, “The children are all learning and enjoying, but our volunteers are loving every minute of their time spent on campus.
No one is looking at their watch to see if it is time to go. Sometimes we are there for over three hours a day and don’t even notice.”
The TLC Program of B’nai Torah Congregation, led by Summer Faerman, is B’nai Torah’s official source for meaningful Mitzvah opportunities that help make a difference in the community and throughout the world. A Mitzvahis any of the 613 commandments that Jewish people are encouraged to observe, and more generally refers to any good deed. The ‘Mitzvah of Tze-
dakah’ – giving to charity – is one of the most important and is a common component of synagogue life. At B’nai Torah, the commitment to acts of Mitzvot is a critically important focus.
The TLCprogram was developed to teach the core Jewish value of Tzedakah – through learning and action – to people of all ages within the congregation.
It was first founded in 2012 and has continued to grow in size and scope. This flagship Mitzvah program touches all areas of critical need including hunger, homelessness, literacy, elder care, vulnerable populations, special needs and more. Learn more here: https:// btcboca.org/community/tlc-program/
B’nai Torah Congregation is the largest conservative synagogue in Southeast Florida with over 1,300 membership families. It is a close-knit, multi-generational, modern, and egalitarian synagogue, which offers diverse services, programs of worship, learning, tzedakah, social action, and social activities. B’nai Torah Congregation creates a perfect outlet for arts, culture, and learning, and we are home to several schools of Jewish education. The synagogue, which offers a wide variety of volunteer opportunities that will enrich the synagogue experience, is a tremendous and vibrant center for tzedakah acts and projects that touch thousands of people.

“King Jehoshaphat went and stood before [the people] and prayed aloud.” 2 Chronicles 20:5-6 (GNT)
Life includes times when you feel like you’re in an impossible situation, when you feel like you’re being attacked from all sides. That’s what happened to Israel’s King Jehoshaphat, who prayed to God when he faced armies from three different nations. To get through those times, you need to learn how to model your prayers after Jehoshaphat’s so that you can get relief.
Jehoshaphat did three things in 2 Chronicles 20 that you can do too: Refocus on God. Even with a problem looming before you, shift your focus to God’s character and promises. Jehoshaphat prayed, “O LORD God of our ancestors, you rule in heaven over all the nations of the world. You are powerful and mighty, and no one can oppose you” (2 Chronicles 20:6 GNT). In essence, he was saying, “God,

When You Pray for Relief, Worship First
you are bigger than anything I will ever face.” Your problems may be too big for you to handle, but they will never be too big for God. Change your perspective by shifting your focus.
Remember God’s faithfulness in the past. Jehoshaphat recalled all the ways God had worked in Israel’s past. Remembering God’s faithfulness in the past will help you trust him for the future. You need to recall the times God has worked powerfully in your life.
Request God’s help. Jehoshaphat essentially prayed, “My problems aren’t too hard for you, God. You’ve helped us in the past. Please do it again!” God loves you, and he cares about your problems.
Jehoshaphat’s prayer is built around three questions: Are you not God? Did you not help us in the past? Will you not do it again?
When you are overwhelmed, you need God’s help. But it’s important to understand that your Father isn’t a vending machine who gives you whatever you want just because you’ve deposited a few prayers. God wants your worship first. You worship when you focus on him and thank him for his faithfulness. Then you pray and ask for his help. Jehoshaphat was faithful to worship the Lord and ask him for help, and God delivered him from his enemies. God will do the same for you.
How does remembering that God is bigger than your problems change your perspective on a difficult situation you’re facing?
What does it mean to pray expectantly? How do the three questions about God (Are you not God? Did you not help us in the past? Will you not do it again?) help you pray this way?
BY JIM MATHIS
If God doesn’t answer your prayers for relief when or how you thought he would, what is a healthy, Christlike response?
Where will you spend eternity?
Your sins separate you from God. And it is only God’s grace that allows you back into a right relationship with him.
The Bible says, “It is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast” (Ephesians 2:8-9 NIV).
If you’re ready to make peace with your Creator, then pray this prayer:

We Are The Average Of Our Five Closest Friends
It has often been said that we are the average of our five closest friends. I do not know if actual data can back up this statement, but it seems to make sense. We tend to enjoy spending time most with people who are like us. Chances are our best friends have educations like ours and similar financial situations. Our friends probably like the same things and may share our religious or political views.
We can look at it a different way: We can choose friends based on who we desire to become and what we want to know. If we want to learn more about football, we can develop friendships with those who know the game, go to games with them and ask questions. This applies to just about every area of life. We can literally define our lives by the friends we choose.
During many different times in my life, I have sought out groups of friends that I aspired to be like. I have joined the Cham-
ber of Commerce, Bible study groups, and volunteer organizations because I wanted to be around, learn from, and ultimately become more like those people. Intelligence is contagious and if we want to be smarter, spend time with smart people. It can be that simple.
The opposite also is true. Years ago, a guitar player friend often said, “Dumb is contagious.” He would say it in a joking matter, and everyone laughed, but he was serious. He usually said it right after someone said something totally ridiculous – and just before he got up and left. I took his advice and have avoided conversations with people who want to talk about current conspiracy theories or have little idea what they are talking about in general.
If we have chosen to marry, our most important friend should be our spouse. When people choose a marriage partner, they are setting the trajectory of their life.
I might not have realized this 50 years ago when my wife and I got married, but it has certainly proved to be the case. Having the same aspirations and sharing the same values in life are far more important and enduring than external attraction.
The Bible has much to say about the kinds of people we associate with, their influence on our lives, and vice versa. Here is some of the wisdom about friendships we find in the Scriptures:
We should be selective in choosing friends. We might attract a few friends, but how many of them will care enough to invest time and energy in truly getting to know you? “A friend of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother” (Proverbs 18:24).
We should seek friends with good character. The right friends lift us up, rath-
er than bringing us down. “He who walks with the wise grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm” (Proverbs 13:20).
We should avoid the influence of unprincipled people. To presume we can have positive impact on people with evil intentions usually proves to be futile. “Do not set foot on the path of the wicked or walk in the way of evil men. Avoid it, do not travel on it; turn from it and go on your way” (Proverbs 4:14-15).
We should befriend people we can trust. We can find many people who will spend time with us when things are going well, but a true friend is one we can rely on for help, encouragement and support during difficult times. “A friend loves for all times, and a brother is born for adversity” (Proverbs 17:17).

Been There, Done That on ignoring signs of aging in Boca
I’ve started talking to myself out loud. Does that mean I’ve turned the corner into what used to be called senility? Apparently not in Boca.
I started complaining about my age when I turned 75. No one would listen. Now I know why. As long as you’re productive and willing to share what you’ve learned all these years, you’re in demand. So, I’ve followed former tennis great Serena Williams’ advice. I’ve “evolved” instead of retiring from my major media career that restricted journalists from doing much of anything else except voting.
Boca Chamber president/CEO Troy McLellan started my reinvention two ½ years ago when I told him I couldn’t cover the Chamber anymore.
A man of a few words, he said “no.” So I reciprocated by becoming a Boca Chamber Ambassador. That’s a higher level of volunteerism, such as heading a table at the monthly membership breakfasts and showing the “fl ag” at business ribbon cuttings. Then Boca Raton Airport executive director Clara Bennett asked me to be an ambassador for the airport’s 75th anniversary.
I covered the airport authority as a reporter, so I was the right pick. I’m a community captain for ESPN Events’ Boca Bowl, one of their annual college football teams matchups. This is the 11th year here, and the game will be held at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday Dec. 18 in FAU Stadium as the venue and televised nationally. It’s always one of my favorite things to do.
I don’t miss reporting because I still get to do this column and cover community news for the Boca Raton Tribune. I’m usually the only reporter there, and I tell readers/users what’s going on locally that’s not criminal or political, and high profile nonprofit fundraising.
I have clients who pay me to edit content, spread the word about the Movies of Delray and blog for Lang Realty.
My husband and I volunteer for Connie Siskowski’s American Association for Caregiving Youth and Mary Sol Gonzalez’s Hispanic Entrepreneur Initiative.
I’m an honorary media consultant
for CEO Sherry Henry’s HabCenter Boca Raton that provides real work and activities for people with developmental disabilities; Rita Thrasher’s mental health initiatives for Boca Raton’s Promise; and founder Lisa Murphy’s nonprofit that advocates adoptions of foster care kids. I’m doing a monthly Q&A for Rosemary Nixon’s Encore Palm Beach County “connecting people 50+ to new work and volunteer opportunities” and honors employers who have an age diversified workforce.
My husband says I have to stop saying “yes.” But I love having a full dance card and being productive as long as I’m able. Thank you Serena for taking the high road after you hung up your tennis shoes for inspiring “evolving” retirees like me.

South Florida Fair Golf Tournament Raises Funds for Education
West Palm Beach, FL – The South Florida Fair John Picano, Jr. Memorial Golf Tournament, which was held at the Banyan Golf Club on June 7, raised more than $33,000 for educational scholarships. Since 1981, the South Florida Fair has raised nearly $900,000 in college scholarships for local youth.
The day began with a continental breakfast before players began golfing. They competed for prizes and awards, which were given out at a luncheon afterwards.
The golf tournament is named in honor of the late John Picano, Jr., who served as the South Florida Fair’s public relations director for almost two decades. A respected community leader, he was an avid golfer and instrumental in the fair’s golf tournament growth and success. His memory lives on through this tournament, which
provides scholarships to area students who might not otherwise be able to attend college.
The South Florida Fair is produced by the South Florida Fair & Palm Beach County Expositions, Inc., a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, and has a longstanding tradition of raising funds for educational and charitable purposes. Located at 9067 Southern Boulevard in West Palm Beach, the 2025 South Florida Fair will kick off with its RideA-Thon at 5 p.m. on January 16 and the full fair will be held January 17–February 2. The Fair staff also presents additional events throughout the year, including Breakfast with the Easter Bunny, Sweet Corn Fiesta, Gigantic Garage Sale, Fright Nights, Spookyville, Cocktails and Costumes and History on the Rocks.

Local Business Wins Prestigious International Award for Media Campaign about Gun Violence Film
Boca Raton, FL – Brandstory Communications (www.BrandstoryCommunications.com), a nationally renowned news media relations agency based in Boca Raton, received a 2024 Clio Health Award from The Clios for the agency’s work on the “American Cancer Story” campaign. The recognition was in the Public Relations (Health Awareness & Advocacy), Cause Related category of The Clio Health Awards.
American Cancer Story is a short film created for Brandstory Communications’ client Change the Ref, an organization that advocates for sensible gun control with the mission to end gun violence and save lives. Change The Ref was founded by Manuel and Patricia Oliver shortly after their son Joaquin was killed on February 14, 2018 during the Stoneman Douglas High School Mass Shooting. Brandstory has worked with the Olivers since the start of their organization.
The film was created by the award-winning team at Klick Health, the world’s largest independent creative agency for life science brands. The emotional short was co-written and directed by ‘Narcos’/‘RoboCop’ filmmaker José Padilha, and produced by Taking Over Films, with VFX by Pierre Buffin, and an original score by Maroon 5’s James Valentine.
“Our Brandstory media relations team had the privilege of engaging news media contacts across the country on behalf of Change The Ref and the film’s creative team to help platform this critical message,” says Brandstory Communication’s Owner and Operator J.P. Hervis. The Boca Raton resident adds, “To have such a compelling film and the Olivers’ voices as our ingredients to strategically earn media was an honor, and this award earned in a collaborative effort is humbling.”
Founded in 1959 to honor excellence in advertising, the Clio Awards celebrate bold work that propels the advertising industry forward, inspires a competitive marketplace of ideas, and fosters meaningful connections within the creative community.
Annually, The Clio Awards brings together leading creative talent from around the world for an exclusive and collaborative judging experience to select the entries that will win the coveted Clio statues.

Building an App Can Help You Grow Your Business. Here’s How to Do It
(StatePoint) In today’s world, apps are crucial for business growth and customer experience. They enable shopping, appointment setting and customer service interactions. In fact, around three-quarters of U.S. adults say they buy things online using a smartphone, according to Pew Research, which means if you don’t have an app for your business, you’re leaving money on the table. However, if building one sounds daunting, experts say there is good news -- artificial intelligence can help.
“AI enhances app development through code generation, chatbots, process optimization, content creation, user stories and prototype generation. Anyone, even with little to no experience, can quickly and cost-effectively develop an app using AI,” says Sachin Dev Duggal, founder and chief wizard at Builder.ai, an AI-powered composable software platform that allows every business and entrepreneur to become digitally powered.
Despite the relative ease of developing an app harnessing today’s AI tech, it’s nevertheless important to get your app right. With over 77% of users uninstalling an app within the first three days after download, according to Wifi Talents, you’ll want to ensure your app provides your users with real value.
So, before building your app, first consider how it will help customers, and how it will help you solve your short- and long-term business objectives. Asking yourself these questions can give you clarity on the type of app you need, how you will fund and maintain your app, and how it will function.
When you are ready to begin development, here are the benefi ts you can anticipate by using AI to meet your objectives:
• Rapid development: AI-driven platforms signifi cantly reduce development time.
• Unlimited customizations: AI app development platforms offer prebuilt, customizable modules.
• High performance: AI creates

Duct Tape and Dad: A Dynamic Duo for Everyday Repairs
(StatePoint) From torn teddy bears and damaged tablets to leaky toilets and wobbly table legs, duct tape and dad will save the day. A new survey from Duck brand, maker of Duck Tape brand duct tape, revealed that 87% of fathers consider themselves the family’s handyman, ready to swoop in with duct tape as their favorite fix-all. In fact, 95% of dads keep a roll nearby, whether on their workbench or in their toolbox.
“The survey confirms what we’ve long known -- that duct tape is a favorite fix-all for dads everywhere,” says Kerry Haugh, Director of Product Marketing, Duct Tapes at Shurtape Technologies, LLC, the company that markets the Duck brand.
“Duct tape is more than just a tool; it’s an innovative solution that fathers know they can rely on -- so much so
that they pass it down through the generations.”
The versatile tool empowers Mr. Fixit to tackle projects from ordinary to extraordinary. Ninety-one percent of father figures have wielded the sticky stuff to mend something around the
house, including everything from car bumpers and doorknobs to sneakers and toys, with 63% saying duct tape is their go-to tool for a quick repair. When a discreet fix is needed, a colored duct tape comes in handy to aesthetically patch rips in clothing, cracks in toys and leaks in household appliances.
The bond between dads and duct tape is a time-honored tradition. A heartfelt 71% of fathers recall watching their own dad use duct tape to restore cherished items like phones, fishing rods, lawn mowers and light bulbs. The legacy of ingenuity and resourcefulness is one that 82% of dads hope to pass down to their children, with 74% of respondents saying that they’ve seen their dads repair something around the house with duct tape.
Next time dad needs to refi ll his duct tape stash, consider Duck Max Strength brand duct tape -- a strong and tough tape for all his repair needs. More information is available duct tape options at www.duckbrand.com.
When it comes to fast fixes, nothing matches the reliability of dads and their trusty duct tape.
Levis JCC Helene & Roy Schwedelson Making Summer Truly Special for Hundreds of Children and Teens
Boca Raton, FL – The Adolph & Rose Levis JCC’s Helene & Roy Schwedelson Special Needs Department offers more than 20 programs throughout the year for individuals with special needs and their families, including Camp Kavod. The 8-week summer program for campers ages 3-22+, features typical camp activities on campus and out in community settings, with a focus on having fun while acquiring vital life skills. Now in its 21st summer, this year 110 campers — a record! –flock to campus each day, eager to see friends, favorite counselors, and enjoy field trips and activities. Campers are divided into groups by age and readiness. As the campers get older, middle and high school-aged campers are also divided by gender.
A day at Camp Kavod begins with carpool drop-off where happy campers bustle out of their cars and are taken to their “bunks” (classrooms). There they share jokes, hang out with friends, do puzzles, and play games before beginning their action-packed daily schedule of activities. On campus, they enjoy therapeutic yoga, specialized fitness instruction, cooking, therapy ponies, sensory activities, daily swimming, and special entertainment; older campers (age 14 and up) venture off-campus for supervised field trips almost every day. These trips are a key factor that sets Levis JCC Camp Kavod apart from so many other area camps for children with special needs. Through these day trips, campers have the opportunity to experience activities and events in community settings that they may not otherwise be able to enjoy, including movies, The Broward Center for the Performing Arts, bowling, Plaster Carousel, and MOD Pizza.
After action-packed days both on and off campus (depending upon the group), campers gather for a late afternoon snack and prepare to head home for the day. As counselors guide campers to their cars, they receive big smiles, hugs and high fives. Each day, Camp Kavod activities are documented by a dedicated photographer who uploads the photos to a secure parent portal. “When a child is nonverbal, as many of our campers are, this is often one of the few ways parents can get a good idea of what their children are doing while at camp,” said Ali Landman the Levis JCC’s VP for Special Needs Services and the Director of Camp Kavod. “I receive calls and texts every day from parents sharing how happy they are that they saw their child swim, or enjoying karate, or yoga. Having photos everyday really helps bring the camp alive for parents who cannot hear from their campers directly.”
The secret to Camp Kavod’s success – at least in part — is the exceptional staff. The 40 counselors are a caring and tight-knit group, many who return each year (Camp Kavod boasts an 85% return rate for staff). “Our counselors are highly qualified and skilled special education teachers and well-trained college students, many of whom choose to pursue careers related to serving the special needs community based on their experience here at Camp Kavod,” said Ali Landman. “It is a point of pride for us that so many of our staff return year after year.” Counselors and campers form strong bonds. “I love coming to camp at the J. Everybody here is just so nice and friendly and my heart just feels so happy when I come here,” said Jacob Farkash, age 14, of Boca Raton. Jacob has been participating in Levis JCC Helene & Roy Schwedelson Special Needs Department programs for 7 years.
Camp Kavod offers a variety of specialized activities throughout the summer, including an eagerly anticipated 4th of July carnival that features water slides, bounce houses, rides, games, and of course snacks. Other featured activities include a mobile teddy bear stuffing company (campers all take home a personalized stuffed animal that they helped make themselves), Color War, drum circle and much more! Longtime Community Partner Kona Ice visits twice in the summer so campers can enjoy frozen treats.
Older campers with special needs have the opportunity to participate in a specialized Counselor In Training (CIT) program which is funded by Jewish Women’s Foundation. The highlight of the summer for teen campers is the annual teen dance. Dressed to impress, dozens of teens who have special needs arrive in the evening to a beautifully decorated auditorium. They enjoy dancing to the sounds of a live DJ, snacks, and a photo booth.
“It is truly one of my favorite nights of the year,” noted Heidi Cohen, Assistant Manager, Special Needs Programs for the Levis JCC and a Special Educa-
tion teacher with the Palm Beach County School District. “Watching these kids arrive all dressed up and so excited, knowing they have the opportunity to experience something that their typical peers don’t think twice about – it just fills my heart with happiness.”
The Levis JCC’s Helene & Roy Schwedelson Special Needs Department presents a variety of programs specially designed to enhance the lives of children, teens and adults with disabilities and serves participants from many different cultural and religious backgrounds who benefit from its quality programming. There is also a financial assistance and scholarship program available for select programs for those who qualify. Programs run throughout the year at the Levis JCC in Boca Raton, and at times in other locations in our area. Volunteer opportunities as well as resource and referral services are also available. The department’s 20+ programs include a variety of programs (learn more online at www.levisjcc.org/ special), including:

Boca’s New Pickleball Center Agreement OK’d
By Marci Shatzman
Boca’s proposed new $17 million indoor and outdoor pickleball center just has one hurdle after the landowner approved a concession agreement with Boca Paddle LLC.
Now all that’s left to start construction in the planned North Park public recreation site is the city’s permitting approvals. And they’re on a city Planning and Zoning agenda in August, developer and Boca Paddle team leader Malcolm Butters told the land owner, the Greater Boca Raton Beach and Park District.
Four of the fi ve district commissioners voted to approve the 55-page agreement after discussions with two district lawyers at the board meeting. Commissioner Craig Ehrnst was the only holdout, citing concerns over the lack of “hard number” for the property price projection after 25 years.
“This is not a lease of any land,” one of the attorneys assured commissioners since the sale or lease of any land isn’t legally permitted by the district.
“All these competitors are nipping at our heels, so the quicker we get this going the better,” Butters said, citing public and commercial pickleball facilities in nearby communities. “This is a public private partnership,” he added.
The fee structure for pickleball players isn’t included in this agreement. When will it be, district commissioner
chair Erin Wright asked over Zoom? That time frame wasn’t answered.
After the motion to approve the agreement was passed, longtime pickleball champion Raul Travieso said he was “delighted.”
“Boca Paddle will build a beautiful building with amenities,” said Travieso, now Florida Southeast District ambassador for the U.S. Pickleball Association.
Here’s some highlights of the concession agreement:
· An initial term of 49 years plus 61 days with the right to extend the term;
· Concessionaire shall construct at its own cost and expense to obtain any and all permits;
· The agreement lays out the profit sharing year to year to be paid in monthly installments;
· What concessionaire is responsible for, such as uncollected credit card sales and damaged fi xtures or merchandise;
· Concessionaire has to hire a full-time experienced manager;
· The facility is required to operate seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. except for federal holidays or (closures) needed to repair the facility
Boca Raton Youth Changemakers Win Grant to Implement Local Solutions to Biodiversity Loss
Boca Raton, FL – EarthEcho International, the global nonprofit dedicated to building a youth movement to protect and restore our ocean planet, recently announced the U.S. and U.K.
youth-led teams selected as the Grand Prize winners of the OurEcho Challenge. The winning teams were part of an innovative competition designed to engage young problem solvers in protecting the diversity of species and ecosystems that make life on Earth possible. Boca Raton based Team Marine Guard was selected as this year’s 1st place winners and will receive $5000 to scale and implement their project over the next year.
“It’s truly an honor to witness the incredible passion, dedication, and ingenuity of this new generation of young climate advocates and problem solvers,” said EarthEcho International founder, Philippe Cousteau, Jr., “So often, conversations talk about the difference that young people today will make in the future, but that isn’t the whole story.
Young people are making a difference right now – in their homes,
schools, and communities. We’re proud to be able to support them through initiatives like the OurEcho Challenge.”
Students participating in the OurEcho Challenge first identify threats to local ecosystems and then propose solutions to restore and protect those natural resources. Team Marine Guard’s winning proposal addresses the challenge of nutrient pollution and harmful algal blooms in South Florida’s waterways by implementing a Gracilaria biofilter system.
This innovative solution involves using the red algae Gracilaria to absorb excess nutrients from the water, thereby preventing the growth of harmful algal blooms and restoring the health of aquatic ecosystems.
“I am deeply honored to receive this award,” said Yashwin Adusumilli, founder of Marine Guard. “This recognition validates our hard work and
motivates us to continue striving for a healthier environment.”
Marine Guard’s journey began after Yashwin witnessed a devastating fish kill in the Florida Keys, which inspired him to find a solution to the nutrient pollution and algal blooms plaguing local waters. The project completed a comprehensive 7-phase research study and was showcased at the International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF).

YMCA Awarded $55k Donation from Truist Foundation to Support Teens
Boca Raton, FL – The YMCA of South Palm Beach County was awarded $55,000 in grant funding from the Truist Foundation in order to positively impact more than 950 local teens with Y programs and resources. The funds will be shared between the Peter Blum Family YMCA in Boca Raton and the DeVos-Blum Family YMCA in Boynton Beach.
This grant aims to empower at-risk teens by equipping them with the tools and resources needed to develop skills for future economic success. This funding will enable teens from minority and low to moderate-income households to participate in Y leadership and workforce development programs at no cost, such as Y Leaders in Training, Youth in Government, Y Achievers Club, Blue Ridge Assembly Leaders school and more.
“Investing in our teens is one of the most impactful commitments we can make,” said Bryan Hunt, Executive Director of the Peter Blum Family YMCA. “At the YMCA, we see firsthand how these programs empower young people to grow into confident, capable leaders. By providing a supportive environment and opportunities for personal development, we help teens build the skills and resilience they need to succeed and contribute positively to their communities.”
A primary objective of Y teen programs is to prevent the decline of academic skills during long breaks from formal education and to ensure that
teens have continuous access to educational resources and support throughout the year. By offering consistent learning opportunities, these programs help at-risk teens stay engaged in their education, graduate from high school, and transition to college or the workforce, ultimately promoting their longterm success.
“Equipping and empowering atrisk teens with the skills necessary to develop into our future leaders aligns with Truist’s purpose of inspiring and building better lives and communities,” states Jason Aube, Market President for Truist. “It is an honor for Truist to support the worthwhile work of the YMCA of South Palm Beach County.”
Driven by its founding mission, the YMCA has served as a leading nonprofit organization committed to strengthening community for more than 175 years. The Y empowers everyone, no matter who they are or where they are from, by ensuring access to resources, relationships and opportunities for all to learn, grow and thrive. The YMCA of South Palm Beach County serves as a community anchor in Palm Beach County by enriching lives and strengthening community through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. The YMCA of South Palm Beach County is comprised of The Peter Blum Family YMCA of Boca Raton, The DeVos-Blum Family YMCA of Boynton Beach, THE LAB: YMCA Leadership Academy, and the YMCA@901 NCCI.
