June Means it’s Poker Run Time

By Giving List Staff   |   June 3, 2021

United Boys & Girls Clubs is excited to announce our summer event for our car enthusiasts, a Poker Run! Don’t worry, though. Our Rally 4 Kids will be back in April of 2022.

Rev your engine for this year’s goal to raise $120,000 during the Poker Run that will support the membership fee for an entire year for 100 youth at all seven locations. With your help, we can ensure no child is ever turned away and provide mentoring, sports clinics, and academic support to more youth throughout Santa Barbara County.  While our services cost an average of $1,200 a year, our membership fees are only $40 per child annually. Your support is crucial to ensuring our fees remain affordable for families in need. With your support, we can continue to provide these opportunities.

Poker Run will be on Saturday, June 26, 2021. You can pay through credit card by using the link or by check. Go to https://ubgc.ejoinme.org/MyEvents/2021PokerRun/Registration to register and learn more.

Uniting Makes Us Stronger

Without any doubt, the Boys & Girls Club (Goleta Club), was my second family that instilled confidence, teamwork and humility. I am so thankful for the support of our community “saving” so many young emerging future leaders.

Investing in Our Youth

Your support transforms more than individual lives – it builds community resilience. A $10,000 contribution funds the Zero Hunger program, ensuring no child faces learning on an empty stomach. $5,000 sponsors the College and Career Bound program, giving students concrete post-graduation plans. $2,500 provides comprehensive year-round programming for one member. $1,000 covers field trips that expand horizons beyond circumstance. 

These investments don’t just serve today’s vulnerable children; they cultivate tomorrow’s community leaders, following the Club’s tradition of developing engaged, giving citizens who understand their responsibility to lift up others.
