Boys & Girls Clubs of San Dieguito get $3,000 grant for flag football

Boys & Girls Clubs of San Dieguito announced today that Buffalo Wild Wings is supporting its All Stars Flag Football program this fall with a $3,000 grant.

The Boys & Girls Clubs of San Dieguito’s flag football program serves more than 150 middle-school youth. The program teaches the fundamentals of flag football in a safe, fun way that builds self-esteem and character. Each team travels and plays opposing teams in the area in a two-month season that includes a playoff and championship game.

The grants also includes team jerseys and tools and resources from the National Alliance for Youth Sports.

Also, now through Oct. 31, Buffalo Wild Wings is promoting a fundraising campaign where 100 percent of every paper pinup that customers buy will support BGCA youth sports programs. The pinups cost $1 minimum and will be displayed in restaurants.

The Boys & Girls Clubs of San Dieguito serve more than 20,000 youth in Carmel Valley, Del Mar, Encinitas and Solana Beach. Contact Nick Ramos at nramos@bgcsandieguito.org or call 858-720-2185.
