Bonnie and Joseph Otting The Otting Family Trust A Message From our CEO Thank you for coming out tonight to support the Boys & Girls Clubs of Santa Monica! Your support is crucial to our mission to inspire and enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as caring, responsible and productive citizens. Every day, 15 million kids across the nation leave school with no place to go, putting them at risk of being unsupervised, unguided and unsafe. As a leading advocate for youth, we are committed to ensuring that every child within our reach has access to a safe place after school and during the summer where they can build the knowledge, skills and behaviors to put them on the path to a great future. Our programs ensure youth have Academic Success, develop Good Character and Citizenship, and engage in Healthy Lifestyles. At just $20 per year, more than 3,900 youth annually participate in our after school and summer programs at 10 sites throughout the community. Members come from 131 different ZIP codes, with the majority of members coming from Santa Monica, Culver City, Venice, West Los Angeles, Mar Vista Gardens, and Inglewood. The Great Futures Gala is an annual event that is crucial to continuing the programming we provide at the Boys and Girls Clubs of Santa Monica. With the goal of raising over $575,000 to benefit our Clubs, this event is one of the largest contributors to kids’ programs in Los Angeles County which provides direct impact in changing lives. The success of this event is credited largely to our generous sponsors, our incredible board members, and to the supportive individuals who attend and contribute. Thank you again for your support!
