October Volunteer of the Month



Barry has been volunteering with the Boys and Girls Clubs of the Twin Cities for nearly ten years. His first experience was through Augsburg where he was involved in service learning as a college student.  

Once he graduated from college, Barry continued his volunteerism.  His first volunteer opportunity brought him to the Jack Cornelius Club in North Minneapolis.  From there, he volunteered at the South Side Village as well as our Jerry Gamble Branch, and is now making an impact at the West Side Boys and Girls Club.


Throughout his tenure of service, Barry has been one of our most dedicated and trusted volunteers who truly understands the impact one person can make in the lives of youth.  He has coached several of our sports leagues including floor hockey, basketball and soccer and even mentors specific youth throughout the year.


Barry has also written several grants for our organization that have allowed our members to prosper in our athletic programs as well as in music exploration.


It is people like Barry that make a lasting impression on our youth and make the difference in our organization.  Thank you for your constant support and impact on our kids.  We appreciate everything you do!
