"Creating Great Futures" Gala & Auction benefiting the Westbank Boys&Girls Club
On Saturday, May 10, 2014, the Westbank Unit Advisory Board of Directors for Boys & Girls Clubs of Southeast Louisiana is hosting the first annual "Creating Great Futures" Gala & Auction. They will be joined by Honorary Chairs of the Gala, Gretna Mayor Belinda C. Constant and Gretna Police Chief Arthur S. Lawson, Jr., for a night of food & spirits from local celebrity chefs, live musical entertainment and a live auction led by Clancy DuBois. The Gala will be the Westbank Club?s first opportunity to invite members of the community to see recent renovations by the Lebron James Family Foundation, Sprite, Samsung and HGTV ? including a mural by local artist Keith Eccles, whose first art class was at the Westbank Club. Proceeds from the Gala & Auction will go to support the annual operating expenses of the Westbank Boys & Girls Club location. Founded in 1967, the Westbank Unit was initially started under the leadership of the Westbank Rotary President, Al Roussell, Sr. Last year, the Westbank Unit provided after-school and summer enrichment programs for over 400 young people between the ages of 6 and 18 through life enriching programs designed to help Club members achieve our priority outcomes of Academic Success, Good Character & Citizenship and Healthy Lifestyles. Club membership is available to all youth between the ages of 6 and 18. Membership dues are kept low to ensure that all young people can afford to participate, and no child is ever turned away because of an inability to pay.
