“Yesterday's tornado reminded us that a strong community shows up when it matters most. We are committed to doing whatever it takes to help kids, families, and our neighbors recover and rebuild,” said Boys & Girls Clubs of the Fox Valley’s CEO, Greg Lemke-Rochon. "We want families to know they have a safe place to turn as they navigate the days ahead."
In addition, the Boys & Girls Club of Menasha will remain closed until further notice and at least through July 31st.
