Boys & Girls Club of Souhegan Valley Receives Donations to Improve Transportation
The Boys & Girls Club of Souhegan Valley received donations to improve the safety and reliability of its transportation program.
The Boys & Girls Club of Souhegan Valley recently received donations from several local businesses and foundations to improve the safety and reliability of its transportation program. Contemporary Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, the Stuart S. Draper Fund of the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation, HPM Insurance, and Granite Bank joined together to support the purchase of a new van used to transport children to and from the Club location on Mont Vernon Street in Milford.
“Because of the large geographic area the Club serves, and because many club members have families with two working parents, transportation is increasingly critical to fulfilling the Boys & Girls Club of Souhegan Valley’s mission to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to be great today and reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens tomorrow” stated Susan Taylor, Executive Director of the Boys & Girls Club of Souhegan Valley. “In addition, with our new gymnasium opening in the winter of this year we will be adding additional recreational sport programs and travel teams. This van will be critical to our ability to safely transport players. Our donors will therefore impact hundreds of children and teens in our community for many years to come.”
The Boys & Girls Club is seeking additional partners to help defray the cost of replacing older vehicles as well as support for its $3 million capital campaign to expand its facility. For more information, contact Susan Taylor, Executive Director, at 672-1002, ext. 15, or staylor@svbgc.org.
