​Donate to the Boys & Girls Club of Lincoln Coronavirus Response Fund

 

With the suspension of schools and workplaces due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the children and families served by the Boys & Girls of Lincoln are facing challenges unlike anything previously encountered.  We are taking proactive steps to help the youth and families who rely on us navigate these difficult times.

​

We’re Responding:  BGC Lincoln is addressing the immediate needs of over 400 youth, and their families, we serve in schools to limit disruptions in learning and enable access to basic needs. We are:

• providing virtual academic enrichment programming and academic resource guidance for parents to engage our children while they are out of school;

• supporting our families by providing a dinner meal 5 days a week.

• providing hygiene kits for students.

 

We’re Looking Ahead to Recovery:  BGC Lincoln will help our kids build resilience as they adjust to a New Normal. We will help them to continue to achieve academic success and practice good health and wellness, by:

• conducting trauma-informed service-delivery in our in-school and out-of-school-time programs to diminish the negative social/emotional impact of COVID-19;

• expanding our programs that promote good health and wellness habits among our youth;

• offering continued information and resources that promote family stability for those we serve.
