2017 Mid-Year Report

4
Dear Skagit,
A little more than three years ago, I received a phone
call that would turn into one of the greatest blessings in
my life. As we begin to celebrate our 20 years of serving
youth in the Skagit community, I think back on our history.
Through the struggles, and great successes, the organization
found a way because of committed Board leadership,
and dynamic staff members.
As the CEO, I work most closely with our Board of Directors,
and understand better than most the level of passion
and dedication it takes, not to mention the sacrifices made
by these individuals who volunteer their time, talent, and
treasure to ensure that youth ages 6-18 have better opportunities
of a great future. There are past members who
served for many years making sure the organization found
a way to thrive, and some who were able to participate for
one term. All are a part of our legacy, and have my gratitude
for building the foundation on which we serve more
than 1,700 youth annually.
Our staff at the Club level, both full and part-time, make
magic happen every day. Our leadership team provides
important mission support; coordinating resources,
training, collaboration, and the administrative functions
necessary for operation so Club staff can focus on that
mission: to enable all young people, especially those who
need us most, to reach their full potential as productive,
caring, responsible citizens. More youth than ever have
needs, and we are working hard to respond accordingly.
With your support we are making progress, and see a
bright future ahead of us, as we look to our next 20 years
of changing lives.
Yours in service,
Ron McHenry, CEO
