The Boys & Girls Clubs of Delaware serve more than 32,000 children in all areas of the state — about one out of every five school-aged children in Delaware, more than any other youth-serving agency. Boys & Girls Clubs are much more than just gyms.  Each Club offers a unique mix of quality programming focusing on educational enhancement, character and citizenship, physical education, health, and arts.

The Boys and Girls Club’s Fraim Center, located in Elsmere, Delaware recently received several hundred books to supplement their educational offers. The program, coordinated by Success Won’t Wait volunteer and Boys and Girls Club intern Ashley McNeill, will ensure that students of all ages have access to quality literature and reference books, as well as college prep workbooks, scholarship information and materials.

Elementary school aged kids are now able to choose from a wide variety of books for pleasure as well as required school reading.
