About this grant

This renewal grant provides general purpose support to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Flint. Focusing on education, creativity, physical activity and health, and family support services, the grantee offers year-round programming to young people between the ages of 7 and 17 in the Flint area. The grantee operates two sites, one located on the east side and the other on the south side of the city. Programs such as this have been particularly necessary in Flint during the water crisis given that educational and enrichment opportunities are important interventions to help mitigate the long-term impacts of exposure to lead.
