The Boys & Girls Clubs of St. Lucie County lead club members to become good citizens.

Any opportunity to teach members the importance of giving back to those less fortunate is a worth-while cause.

BGCofSLC is hosting a clothing drive to collect new socks and underwear for children that have been affected by the recent storms.

Any club can accept donated socks and underwear or general donations (checks/CC) to help with this initiative through the end of next week, Oct. 20.

A special thank you goes out to the following clubs that are hosting collection drives at their sites:

• Ken Pruitt Unit
• Manatee
• Floresta
• Chuck Hill Unit
• Oak Hammock
• Lakewood Park
