*Disclosure - I
participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for
Boys & Girls Clubs of America. I received a promotional item as a thank you
for participating.
I have exciting news to share with you all. I have been
chosen to be a Boys & Girls Club (BGCA) Back-to-School-Ambassador. Why is this
exciting news? Well, for a few years of my life I worked as a director at a
before/after school program for elementary aged kids. They have a special place
in my heart. This age is SO fun to hangout with, and I loved working with them,
kids are SO fun, aren't they?! The Boys and Girls Club, specifically, has so
many great opportunities for kids of all ages, and from all different walks of
life.
Now, looking back, I realize how important before and
after-school programs are to children. I watched some of these kids struggle, because
they weren’t prepared for school. This really tugs at my heart; it is such a
shame, because most kids this age, are eager and ready to learn about the world
around them. I am so excited to share
this great opportunity with all of you! There is a way YOU AND I can help these
children, who may be struggling with things at home that we have no idea about. Help the kids in your neighborhood, by making their ‘back to school’ experience worry free. BGCA
has partnered with jcpenney for the ’jcpenneycares round up campaign’. This is such an awesome campaign; when shopping
at JCP in the month of July, you will have the chance to round-up your purchase
to the nearest whole dollar to help make a difference by supporting
after-school programs at Boys and Girls Clubs across the country. And guess
what? 100% of the donations raised will go towards BGCA! How cool is that?
Funds raised at checkout will go toward supporting BGCA’s More Members More
Often initiative. The initiative focuses on attracting more your people to join
the Club, motivating existing members to increase their participation and
retaining youth as members over longer periods of time.

So please, I am asking you now to do your part to help. This
is such an easy opportunity, how could you pass it up? Most likely you will already be shopping for back to school items for your kids anyway, why not
check out JCP – and “round up”!
