Learn How To Give Back This Holiday Season w/ Boys And Girls Club #MC #ad #GreatFutures

December 11, 2013 by Dawn McAlexander

I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Boys and Girls Clubs of America. I received a promotional item as a thank-you for participating.

Boys and Girls of America Kids Give Back campaign

It’s the holiday season! So, it’s time for all kinds of seasonal fun, family togetherness and general merriment. Boys & Girls Clubs of America wants to remind us reflect on the true meaning of giving with their 3rd annual Give the Gift of Great futures website. Right now you can vote in the Kids Give Back contest which showcases BGCA kids and their efforts to give back in their communities all year long. You can also used the Gift Tag Generator to create personalized, gorgeous holiday gift tags as well as learn tips to help inspire your kids to give back in your community. One way they recommend is by volunteering with your child this holiday season! After all, kids learn by example.

Happy Holidays!

    What a great way to showcase kids and all that they do! It makes them feel good about themselves, brings awareness to the organization, and shows others how important these kids are. I love this idea. Children are so important, and we need to do help them realize that.

    What a good idea. Kids really do need to learn that as people, we need to help each other.

    Giving back is important! It is better to give than to receive.

    It is so important to instill in children the importance of helping each other and giving back. This is such a good idea.

    This is a great idea. I am trying to teach my son that we need to help out other people whenever we can. He has always been willing to help and I think he will do pretty good when he’s grown up.

    The Boys and Girls club really have awesome programs. Right before Christmas break they gave every kid a wrapped gift.

    volunteering is great work and it is even better when you can do that with your child and introduce them to ” giving”.
