Boys & Girls Clubs of Hall County recently received a new grant thanks to Boys & Girls Clubs of America and Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Georgia Foundation and Amerigroup Foundation.
This $5,000 grant is one of over 100 distributed across the country by the Anthem Foundation to support Triple Play programming, which focuses on being healthy through the mind, body and soul, according to a press release from the local club.
“We are incredibly grateful for the support and partnership of Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Georgia Foundation and Amerigroup Foundation, because without their support we would not be able to impact so many kids and teens each year,” said Steven Mickens, CEO, Boys & Girls Clubs of Hall County. “With this grant, we hope to continue to provide new and much needed healthy lifestyles programming to kids who need it most, and create a positive foundation for them to grow and thrive.”
The grant is part of a five-year, $10 million commitment from the Anthem Foundation to Boys & Girls Clubs of America to promote healthy lifestyles.
