personal or familiar connections, that drives the heart to do<br />
marvelous things. For BGCOKC, love is that and much more! It is<br />
the goal of this organization to ensure that each and every one of<br />
our Club Kids knows that no matter their circumstances, they are<br />
loved. Loving someone means cheering them on in their<br />
successes, but also giving them encouragement through the<br />
tough times. It means pushing them to do their best when they<br />
feel like giving up. At BGCOKC, we love our Club Kids. We love<br />
giving them a home away from home and we love watching them<br />
reach their full potential.<br />
BGCOKC LOVES HAVING YOUR SUPPORT AND<br />
WE WISH YOU A WONDERFUL VALENTINE'S DAY!<br />

WHAT DO OUR CLUB KIDS<br />
I love my family, my<br />

WHAT DO OUR CLUB TEENS<br />
I love BGCOKC<br />
because it is a great<br />
environment to learn<br />
new things. Not only<br />
are you with people<br />
your age, but also older<br />
kids who can set<br />
examples for you.<br />
There are a lot of<br />
opportunities here.<br />
I love BGCOKC<br />
LOVE?<br />
because it's where<br />
my family is. I've<br />
grown up in the Club<br />
and its truly taught<br />
me what love is.<br />

WHAT DOES OUR CLUB STAFF<br />
I knew there was<br />
something special when I<br />
stepped in the door 11<br />
years ago, but it wasn't<br />
until I met my sons at<br />
the Club that I knew what<br />
true love was. I love<br />
BGCOKC because it gave<br />
me my family.<br />
KRIS MINNIS<br />
I love the Boys &<br />
LOVE?<br />
Girls Club<br />
because I make an<br />
impact on teens<br />
and can make a<br />
difference in a<br />
child's life.<br />
