Boys & Girls Clubs of Southeast Missouri
Boys & Girls Clubs of Southeast Missouri has partnered with Zonta to help fund our SMART Girls Program. SMART Girls is a small-group health, fitness, prevention/education and self-esteem enhancement program designed to meet the developmental needs of girls in three age groups. Through dynamic sessions, highly participatory activities, field trips and mentoring opportunities with adult women, Club girls explore their own and societal attitudes and values as they build skills for eating right, staying physically fit, getting good health care and developing positive relationships with peers and adults. SMART Girls is a national program of Boys & Girls Clubs of America and we work hard to make it our own by taking field trips to local places of interest and involving community leaders and other partner agencies when possible. The support we have received from Zonta has helped fund various SMART Girls projects and field trips!
