Demonstrating Compassion
Teen Boys & Girls Club Members Raise Funds for Haitian Relief

Demonstrating their compassion and empathy for Haitians affected by the recent earthquake, teen members from the Boys & Girls Clubs of Whittier, Calif., quickly stepped up to raise funds to aid Haitian kids.

Joining area Lions Club volunteers, 15 Club teens and four staff members collected money for disaster relief in uptown Whittier on Saturday, Jan. 16. They worked side by side collecting funds at a major intersection for four hours.

Together the group collected over $10,000 for Haitian relief in just one day!

All across the country, teen Club members are reacting to the earthquake in Haiti by raising funds and in-kind donations. Their actions speak volumes about the character of our young people and the power of Clubs.
