Boys & Girls Clubs in El Paso

In this edition of El Paso Prime Time, Richard Dayoub from Thunderbird Management is joined by Anthony Tomasheski, the CEO of the Boys & Girls Clubs in El Paso to discuss the history of the Clubs and how they help students to be academically successful through fun programs in 12 different clubs, 11 of which are located within school campuses.

The Boys & Girls Clubs of El Paso provides a safe, educational and fun environment for youth after-school and during summer break. Their programs are designed to improve academic achievement, build character, and strengthen life skills. Clubs are open to all youth ages 6-18, and have a special focus on children and teens from challenging or disadvantaged circumstances. Clubs provide children with support, guidance and hope for the future. Clubs also keep fees very low and never turn kids away because of inability to pay.
