Aaron Judge, New York Yankee and former Fresno State Bulldog, and founder of the Aaron Judge ALL RISE Foundation are proud to announce that the Boys and Girls Club – Sierra Vista, Stockton, California, is the recipient of the $2,500 Spring 2020 Mini-Grant for school activities, health & well-being, youth citizenship and character development.
The mission of the Boys & Girls Club is to inspire and enable young people to reach their full potential as productive, caring, and responsible citizens. This mini-grant will be used to deliver weekly kits of club programs, including academic packets, books, art activities, STEM activities, food/snacks, and resources to the children of the Sierra Vista Housing community.
“Education and healthy habits are very important to me. The work that the Boys & Girls Club is doing within the Sierra Vista neighborhood is exceptional. We are excited to provide this Mini-Grant that will help keep members engaged in educational opportunities, creative projects and develop healthy habits. The values of the Boys and Girls Club are perfectly aligned with the mission of our foundation.” said Aaron Judge. ALL RISE Foundation is proud to support the Boys & Girls Club – Sierra Vista to help vulnerable children amidst these unprecedented times. We congratulate them for their hard work and dedication to children in our community. The funds will be used to support the inaugural On the Go program, created in response to Covid-19 and the need for kids to have projects and tools at home.
The Mini-Grant Award Program is possible due to the generous sponsors of the inaugural Aaron Judge ALL RISE Foundation fundraiser held in Linden in January 2019. All funds raised at this event go directly to children and youth programs in San Joaquin County that support ongoing education and citizenship.
