Help us multiply our $5 seed money!

Our UW Executive Development Class session on innovation gave us a group project to "raise value" for whatever that meant for us. We were given $5 of seed money, and also a chart on different types of value. 

My group decided we wanted to go for "life-changing value" and decided that the best way to do that was to raise money for an organization that provides life-changing value for kids.

So please help us multiply our seed money for a good cause! Read more about the cause we have chosen below...

The Power of the Club

From flexible Club hours to exciting new teen programs, Boys & Girls Clubs of King County is a safe, bright spot for families in our community.

Our 30 Clubs provide a safe environment and culturally relevants (and fun!) programs. The Clubs also provide fee scholarships so that financial insecurity is never a barrier to care for families.

Generations of youth have found trusted adult mentors at Boys & Girls Clubs of King County. Today, Club youth are also accessing programming designed to bolster mental wellness, access to mental health counseling, and staff with additional training in trauma-informed responses. 

Our key challenges in expanding mental wellness care are the availability of behavioral healthcare workers to fill these critical roles and new community funding to support the growth.

Your support via this class project helps expand mental wellness programming and ensures the Clubs are ready to serve the kids and families that need us most. 

Please help us support life-changing value for kids!

Only donations between 10:30am - 12:30pm (Pacific, we got a late start) on Monday, December 8th, will count for our class project because the project is limited to a two-hour active window. But feel free to keep donating if you've missed that window. Every contribution will help kids, and that is the real reason we selected this project!

THANK YOU for your help!!!
