For 2025, we are proud to honor two organizations. The Boys & Girls Clubs of Manatee County is among this year’s recipients.
Boys and Girls Clubs of Manatee County is an afterschool and summer program that offers hope and opportunity to every child in the community, especially those who need it most. They provide the children of Manatee County with a safe place to learn and grow, life-enhancing programs, and character building experiences. BGCMC offers daily access to a range of programs in four core areas: academic success, good character & leadership, healthy lifestyles, and life & workforce readiness. Their mission: to enable all young people, especially those who need it most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens.
