A quarter-century ago, a Boys & Girls Club sprouted up in Moline's Floreciente neighborhood to provide children with a safe, supportive and fun place to go after school.

Today, 25 years later and four clubs strong in Moline and Davenport, the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Mississippi Valley still meets that goal every day. But now they also strive to help kids see opportunities beyond school.

"We want to help these kids be productive and responsible individuals by the time they go out into the world," said Executive Director Jenny Garlach. "We just love our kids and want them to see their full potential."
