The Boys
and Girls Club of Mount Vernon is getting set to hold their first in-person
gala in three years.
The Annual
Fall Benefit is happening at the Surf Club in New Rochelle next Thursday, Oct.
20.
The event
will honor former Club Counselor and Executive Director Billy Thomas and former
NBA
star and Club Executive Director Lowes Moore. "We're also honoring
our 2022/23 Youth of the Year - Jenae Brown. She is an up-and-coming young
woman, a junior at the Denzel Washington School of the Arts, a club member for
two years, and just a tremendous volunteer role model to her peers," says
Mel Campos, CEO Boys & Girls Club of Mount Vernon.
The club
was also just selected as the 2022 "National Award" winner for Teen
Outreach out of 4,000 clubs across the world!
