To: City of Elk River Council Members <br />From: Boys and Girls Clubs of Elk River and Zimmerman <br />Re: Program Proposal <br />Date: 7/29/04 <br /> <br />Attached you will find an updated funding request to assist our local Boys and <br />Girls Club. This proposal offers a unique opportunity for us to provide services <br />to our local youth. The monies being requested would be used to fund two <br />programs; Youth in the Community and the Healthy Lifestyle Choices <br />Program. <br /> <br />The first program, Youth in the Community, is an expansion to our existing <br />youth offerings. The second program, Healthy Lifestyle Choices, is an existing <br />service we have been offehng since we opened in 1999. Each of these directly <br />serves youth in the Elk River area. <br /> <br />We are not requesting a set dollar amount; rather we have included total budget <br />information for both programs. This was done so the Council could see details <br />at to how these services will be funded, if money is available. The hopes are <br />that Council members will see a service, or a piece of a service, that they could <br />invest in. <br /> <br />At our local Club in Elk River, we feel fortunate to be affiliated with the <br />BGCA, the Boys and Girls Club of America. This international non-profit <br />agency offers us a vast network for program development and staff resources, <br />as well as financial opportunities. <br /> <br />Thank you for considering our grant request. We feel that the Boys and Girls <br />Club of Elk River is positively affecting our children's lives each day. We <br />appreciate your on-going support towards our goal of serving children. <br /> <br /> <br />
