2024 TOTAL WARRANTY SERVICES CAMPAIGN

Of all the proposed charities that are doing exceptional work right here in our hometown, we would like to announce that this year TWS has elected to support Boys & Girls Clubs of Broward County (BGCBC) once again. BGCBC is a nationally accredited, non-profit, South Florida based organization directly making a positive impact on thousands of “at risk” youth. The BGCBC has achieved the highest rating, 4 stars out of 4 stars, by the Charity Navigator for the 13th year consecutively.  Charity Navigator monitors all the financials of over 5,000 non-profits in the country. Only 2% of the non-profits in the country have achieved this milestone 13 years in a row!!! Eight percent ( 8%) of the monies raised go towards administrative costs. That’s 92% of YOUR donation going to direct services for the kids!! Your donation will have an immediate impact on a child!!!!!

The youth of the BGCBC need us more now than ever. There is now a new “normal” for your youth! The need for healthy socialization in a safe environment is paramount to the sound well-being of our youth’s mental and physical health.

Currently, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Broward County are providing services for 10,500 “at – promise” youth on a weekly basis. The future is starting to look bright for our youth. Optimism is running high at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Broward County.

OUR GOAL IS TO RAISE $75,000 FOR
THIS WONDERFUL ORGANIZATION!

With that being said, ANY amount you would like to give will be greatly appreciated and has never been needed more! You can donate anonymously, as an individual, or as a company. Donations will be accepted now through August 15th and the grand total will be announced as soon as the totals are compiled. Since 1965, it has been the mission of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Broward County to enable all young people, especially those who “need us most”, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, and responsible citizens. Now with 14 Clubs throughout Broward County, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Broward County are providing services for over 40,000 youth monthly, ages 6 – 18 yrs. of age. The Boys & Girls Clubs of Broward County’s goal is to provide world-class Club experiences that assure success is within reach of every child who walks through our doors. We want all members to graduate from high school with a plan; demonstrate good character and citizenship by participating in leadership training and volunteering in community service projects and engage in physical activities that promote a healthy lifestyle.
