Our Featured Staff Member: Patty Pena

WE WOULD LIKE TO RECOGNIZE PATTY PENA, A TULARE CLUB STAFF WHO HAS BEEN WITH US FOR 3 YEARS NOW! PATTY IS AN EXTREMELY FRIENDLY, CARING AND PASSIONATE PERSON. SHE CHOOSES TO WORK AT OUR CLUBS BECAUSE SHE HAS A LOVE FOR KIDS AND IS DEDICATED TO MAKING A POSITIVE DIFFERENCE IN THEIR LIVES.

Patty is the first person our Tulare members see when they walk through the doors of the Club! They can rely that she will always be there to greet them as they sign-in. It is Patty's priority to ensure that every Club member and family feels important.

Patty said, "I would say that my passion is to be a positive influence on kids and help in any way that they may need to thrive and succeed in everyday life."

During these past few months, Patty has been busy calling members and parents, checking in with them and giving them resources. She has also been helping members with homework and creating video activities for them to do at home. Overall, Patty has been working hard to reassure Club kids and their families that she is there to help them with whatever they may need.

Thank you, Patty, for being an excellent role model and mentor for our kids. From, your BGCS Family!
