Whitney Youth Empowerment Fund

Donate to the Whitney Youth Empowerment Fund

When the Boys & Girls Club opened in Bend, Whitney was one of the first kids through the door. Her family needed a safe place after school and in the summer, and the Club became that place. She found caring adults and mentors, homework help, nutrition support, and friends who felt like family. Club is where she grew up. What began as a place of safety for Whitney would later become the foundation for a lifetime of service to kids and families in Bend.

After high school and college, she returned to the Club, this time as staff working directly with Club members. She started as a Youth Development Professional, later became Program Director at the East Bend Club followed by the Downtown Club, and today serves as Vice President of Program Strategy and Operations. In every role, kids know they can count on her. Always looking for opportunities, she started a cheer program at the Club to help youth feel a sense of belonging and help build their confidence.

To honor her years of service and care, Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Oregon is launching the Whitney Youth Empowerment Fund. This fund will directly support families in need and help kids participate in Club programs where they feel steady support each day. Friends, families, and champions of the Club can make a gift to help a future family or give $15 each month in honor of her 15 years of service.

Through her leadership and the Whitney Youth Empowerment Fund, Whitney’s impact will continue to shape the lives of kids and families who need the Club today and for years to come.
