Recognized by Boys & Girls Club for Commitment to Ohio's Youth
COLUMBUS - Senate President Keith Faber (R-Celina) this week received
the Ohio Alliance of Boys & Girls Clubs' 2016 "Blue Door Award" in
recognition of his support of the Clubs' programs around the state.
"I'm grateful for this honor," said Faber. "As a parent of young
children, I know how important after-school and summer opportunities
are for the academic and social development of our children. I
appreciate the work of the Boys & Girls Clubs all around our state
to create safe, engaging and inspiring environments for our youth. Your
work truly changes lives."
Faber played an instrumental role in securing financial support for the
Alliance in the past two state budgets. The state funding enables the
clubs to reach youth across the state through after-school and summer
programs, challenging them to achieve academically, develop strong
moral compasses and make healthy lifestyle choices.
“President Faber has always opened his door to our organization,” said
Randy Randolph, President of the Ohio Alliance of Boys & Girls
Clubs. “We greatly appreciate his consistent support and counsel
as we work to create bright futures for Ohio's kids.”
