Jim little 

Board Chair 2007–2008 

as i refleCt on the previous year, it has been a very 

successful time for the Boys & Girls Clubs serving Wake County. 

our success is due to the dedication and teamwork of the Boys 

& Girls Clubs’ staff, Board members, volunteers, and financial 

supporters. Without this well-equipped team, the past year’s 

achievements would not have been possible. 

This year marked the 40 th anniversary of service provided by 

the Boys & Girls Clubs in Wake County. since 1967, tens 

of thousands of children and teenagers have walked through 

our doors and more will come as we continue improving the 

community we serve. 

We began the year with two new Clubs, the Brentwood Boys & 

Girls Club and the teen Center. Both Clubs focus on a segment 

of our community’s population that has been underserved. The 

Brentwood Club was organized to bring the services provided 

by our organization to Wake County’s growing Hispanic community, 

and the teen Center provides a continuum of services to 

our community’s growing teen population. The success of these 

two clubs has exceeded our expectations. 

This year, we were fortunate to receive two large grants to help 

with the program costs of these new Clubs. The first is a threeyear 

grant that will support the Hispanic outreach initiative at 

the Brentwood Boys & Girls Club. The second grant is a five-year 

commitment from the Continuous Blessings foundation that 

will help grow and support a much-needed new Boys & Girls 

Club facility in Zebulon. 

like many Board Chairs before me, i have had the pleasure of 

serving with one of the most vibrant and active volunteer Boards 

within Wake County. Without their dedication, guidance, and 

support, the Boys & Girls Clubs would not be where it is today. 

in recognition of its accomplishments, the north Carolina area

2008 AnnuAl RepoRt 3 

Council voted our Board of Directors the “High Performance 

Board team of the year.” in addition, the Board was recognized 

by the Boys & Girls Clubs of america as the “southeast region’s 

top Board team.” 

We are also very fortunate to have one of the best staffs in our 

country. This year, the staff earned three marketing and communication 

awards at the national Boys & Girls Club Conference. 

and, our Club kids didn’t lag behind; they were well represented 

in the art competitions, with six regional winners and one 

national winner. 

Congratulations to all of our Board members, staff, and Club 

kids for their display of talent and ability. 

This success is due to the amazing efforts of our many volunteers 

and supporters throughout Wake County. let me express 

my gratitude to each and every one of you for your continuing 

support. Please know that you are making a difference in the 

lives of many children in our community. your support in the 

past and in the years to come will ensure that each child who 

comes to the Boys & Girls Clubs will have the opportunity to 

reach his or her full potential and become a productive citizen of 

our society. on behalf of the 4,032 children and teens that you 

have served this year, thank you for all that you do.
