Charitable Foundation Provides Local Fort Lauderdale Boys and Girls Club a Holiday Party

March 9, 2013 - PRLog -- When a local Fort Lauderdale Boys & Girls Club was planning their annual
Holiday party for almost 200 children and were coming up short on donated toys and gifts for the children and teens, they looked to the Charitable Foundation. In true form the foundation stepped up to the plate and presented a gift to each and every child and teen. They have done this for the last 3 years and plan to continue helping as long as they are able.

When the foundation learned that some children's families were having difficulty paying the $25 a year membership fee they provided over 100 scholarships for the children so that they could continue going to the club for after school activities, sports, homework help, supervision and a hot evening meal.

The Charitable Foundation fills gaps that other organizations can't.
