BWW Foundation Grant Gift to fuel Great Futures

The Boys & Girls Club of Fond du Lac has received a generous $9,000 grant award to fuel great futures for youth. This opportunity is made possible through the Buffalo Wild Wings Foundation, whose mission is to help build communities where all kids can thrive, compete and belong to a team. 

Studies show that sports have a tremendous impact on youth and their social, emotional and physical development into adolescence and adulthood. Playing on a sports team teaches kids the skills to succeed on the field and compete in life. For many kids, legendary experiences both on and off the playing field act as a foundation for important life skills. Through BWW Foundation’s support of youth access to sports, they are helping kids realize the value of being a team player and fostering strong community connections.

In 2013, the foundation partnered with Boys & Girls Clubs of America to create ALL STARS sports leagues that are designed to expose kids to the benefits of participating in team sports and belonging to a team. Through the partnership, many Clubs including ours have received coaching and training resources, uniforms, and grants to fund sports leagues and off-set costs associated with transportation and infrastructure.

Thank you, BWW Foundation, for such an incredible gift to open more doors for our youth!
