On March 10, 2020, nearly 300 people filled the room at our 2020 Youth of the Year Luncheon to support our four candidates – Larissa Clay, Dymond Cummings, Marvin Johnson and Myaja Dunning. These young people have all done an amazing job over the past few months preparing essays and speeches, and sharing their stories with hundreds of supporters.

Our 2020 Youth of the Year winner is…. Myaja Dunning! Myaja has been awarded a scholarship from Lake Michigan Credit Union, as well as other prizes. She will be moving on to compete at the state level in April.

The luncheon raised more than $60,000 to go toward programming and other important needs at our Clubs. We couldn’t be more grateful for the outpouring of support to provide kids in our community a safe place to go after school where they can get the support, encouragement and resources they need to reach their full potential.
