Every year, nearly four million young people are served by Boys & Girls Clubs. To show their continued support in preparing today’s youth for a bright tomorrow, Ross Stores, Inc. is partnering with Boys & Girls Clubs of America with a three-week program called, “Help Local Kids Learn.”

This month until Feb. 23, Ross Dress for Less (“Ross”) customers can make a monetary contribution at checkout to be donated to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Anaheim-Cypress. Our Club is partnered with the Ross Stores at the Anaheim Plaza, Cypress Plaza Shopping Center, Buena Park Promenade, Cerritos Towne Center, and Long Beach Towne Center.  The funds will be used to support Power Hour, an interactive after-school homework assistance program for members, ages 6-18.

According to Ross Group Senior Vice President Matt Young, “Ross Stores is very excited to host the sixth annual Help Local Kids Learn in-store campaign for the Boys & Girls Clubs. This campaign will directly help kids at local Clubs across the county.  BGCA and Ross’ strong partnership of 14 years is rooted in both organizations’ shared commitment to help young people reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens.”

He said one hundred percent of proceeds raised at each store will benefit local Boys & Girls Clubs. Every $3 donation helps provide one hour of homework help for a Club youth.
