The club is the safe haven for keeping these children off of the streets, it is their home away from home. We provide every child with a hot meal, hours of festivities and winter hats, gloves & warm, embroidered with the Boys & Girls Club logo on it, coat, vest, hooded sweatshirt or item of warmth for their upper body along with other surprises. All of this is possible from our memorial race, thru the UNICO Scranton Chapter, as well as awarding 2 college scholarships at West Scranton High School, to a male & a female student, in their current graduating class.
