CARBONDALE, Ill. – The Boys & Girls Clubs of Southern Illinois (BGCSI) is thrilled to announce the launch of the Blue Door Reopen Campaign. This fundraising initiative aims to raise $200,000, allowing us to reopen our doors and resume serving the youth of Carbondale and Marion.
For over 20 years, the BGCSI has served as a cornerstone of the community, providing a safe haven for children. The Clubs offer educational programs, positive mentorship, and a space where kids can simply be themselves in a thriving environment.
The campaign kicked off April 18th and runs through May 15th. The BGCSI Board of Directors will be reaching out to community members to request their support.
