NCBBBS recognizes Humboldt Sponsors for contributing to our summer activities with unmatched children. Each summer we take children roller-skating, swimming at the pool, and drive them to summer camp. Thank you Humboldt Sponsors for your support!
We are blown away by the work of Lost Coast Camp and North Star Quest Camp to provide 12 BBBS youth with scholarships to attend summer camp. All of these young people would never have the opportunity to attend without these scholarships. A gigantic Thank You to the Camp Directors and to everyone in the community who has sponsored or donated to these camps to make the scholarships possible.
Thank you to Living Styles Fine Furniture Gallery for participating in our Day of Sales campaign in early 2008.
A special thanks goes out to our 2009 Bowl for Kids' Sake Business Sponsors!
