Renovation Across the Nation

The Boys & Girls Club of East Mississippi received a $50,000.00 grant from Lowe’s to renovate its teen center to help encourage teen membership. The grant is part of Renovation Across the Nation, a program now in its second year, which provides one Club in all 50 States with a grant and volunteer support from Lowe’s to complete much needed improvements and renovations. Our Club was selected as the signature Club in the State of Mississippi.

As the need to update facilities increases and maintenance costs rise, Lowe’s support is helping the Boys & Girls Club of East Mississippi make critical improvements to ensure the Club remains a safe and inviting place for the City of Meridian’s youth who need them most.

Join us to see Club improvements and discuss the much-needed updates with Club executives, kids and teens, as well as Lowe’s leadership.

“The Club offers educational methods for our teens to discover their talents, and assist them in preparing for the working world; two important steps to becoming self-sufficient adults”, says Ricky Hood, CEO of the Boys & Girls Clubs of East Mississippi.
