Boys & Girls Clubs of America created a special day, called “Day for Kids,” to foster stronger relationships between adults and children by educating them on the importance and value of spending meaningful time together.  Day for Kids provides the opportunity for every adult to take a break, celebrate and renew their commitement to children.


DAYS FOR KIDS
Please join us for “Day for Kids” on Saturday, September 25th as the Boys & Girls Clubs of Sarasota County celebrate the importance of kids and the adults who care about them with “Walk for the Kids.” Hundreds of adults and children from our communities will gather together at four Boys & Girls Club locations throughout Sarasota County to walk, talk, share a moment, create a memory and make a kid’s day.

WALK FOR KIDS
As part of Day for Kids, Walk for the Kids is friends asking friends and family to rally for kids and support life-enhancing programs of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Sarasota County. The entry fee for the walk is $25 and free for children under 18 years old.
With just a click of a button, you can join as an individual walker or start a team.  A team can be a Family Team including family, friends and neighbors or a Corporate Team–an easy and fun team-building event for a department or group of colleagues.
Simply by asking 10 friends to sponsor you for $25, you can easily reach your first goal of $250. Ask more people ? raise more money! It?s as simple as that!
Be a BGC Star Walker! When registering as a Walker be sure to mark the box indicating that you would like to join the “BGC Star Walkers Club” and set a goal of raising $1,000 or more.  Members of the “BGC Star Walkers Club” receive special benefits and rewards.
The mission of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Sarasota County is to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens.
