Our History In 1956,
the Legion Memorial Boys' Club, was started by the Roosevelt Branch of
the Royal Canadian Legion. Volunteers ran programs on the second floor
of the Legion for about 40 boys. The Legion wanted to help keep boys
off the streets and away from potential juvenile delinquent behaviour.
We have grown over the years to a multi service organization serving
the unmet needs of more than 8,265 children and youth. We
have two Boards which are separately incorporated under the laws of
Ontario and registered under the Societies Act. Each Board consists of
fifteen members with one cross-over member who sits on both to ensure
that good communication is fostered and that the interests of our
children and youth are maintained. In
the beginning, the Boys & Girls Club of London Foundation Board
looked after a small investment fund and met twice a year. In 1984 the
Foundation was revamped and thrust into a more active role. The Board
members, along with a Campaign Cabinet were charged with raising two
million dollars to build new facilities for the Club. We placed all of
our assets under their jurisdiction and charged them with administering
the Building Fund, Investment Fund, and increasing our fund raising
activities. This Board now meets six times each year and has its own
President and Officers. |
