Sgt. Priscilla Zimmerman * from the 70sLooking back, before attending the Club, my dreams and opportunities were limited, but once there I learned self-respect and self-worth and the whole world opened up for me.
-
Rev. Terry Alexander * from the 60sI am thankful for the strong adult mentors the Club had, as they provided me the guidance needed for my future success.
-
Michael Woods * from the 90sThe Club has provided me with a lot of my “first” experiences: traveling in and out of South Carolina, staying overnight in a hotel, riding on an airplane, and even my first job. I don’t know where I would have ended up had it not been for the Club.
