Summer Benefit

The Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Minnesota has gone virtual for the 2020 Summer Benefit! We explored outdoor venues and potential later dates, but in the end, we decided that a virtual event is the best course of action and the most responsible decision we can make for the health and safety of our community.

This year’s event is themed, “Whatever It Takes to Build Great Futures,” and will focus on highlighting the many ways Boys & Girls Club has stepped up to bring hope to our community during the pandemic.

August 18, 2020
