Boys and Girls Club of Greater Houston

Date/Location: Houston, TX | December 2021

Preceding the 2021 Holiday Season, Conn’s Cares partnered with the Houston Texans to donate $45,000 to three deserving local families through the Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Houston (BGCGH). The surprise donations were presented at the Houston Texans halftime event during a home game at NRG Stadium, and mark $1 million in donations Conn’s Cares has given back to the community since 2017!

Chandra Holt, Conn's HomePlus President and CEO stated, “We were thrilled to celebrate the $1 million milestone in our hometown of Houston, in partnership with our home team, by honoring three deserving families.”

BGCGH’s mission is to inspire and enable all youth to realize their full potential as productive, responsible, and caring citizens. While at Clubs, kids have access to homework help, healthy meals, sports, arts, and mentors that help them build character and are a safe space for children and teens to go after school and during academic breaks. BGCGH has been in Houston nearly 70 years and annually serves over 30,000 youth aged 6-17 through 23 Club locations in five counties.

“We are so moved by the generosity of Conn’s HomePlus,” said Kevin Hattery, President and CEO of Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Houston. “We understand the importance of having a comfortable and safe place for our kids to go when they leave our clubs, and Conn’s HomePlus is helping provide that for these families.”
