The Boys & Girls Clubs’ Warner & Shirley Gabel Branch recently celebrated the completion of a newly built teen bathroom and upgraded teen room at the Warner & Shirley Gabel Branch in South Phoenix. The improvements, made possible through a $50,000 grant from Lowe’s, included the construction of a new teen bathroom on the second floor of the Club, and upgrades to the teen computer area, including new seating and a fresh coat of paint.
The dedication event, held Tuesday, February 25, included the Lowe’s team putting the finishing touches on the space and tours for community members showcasing the new and improved areas.
This project is part of a longstanding partnership between Lowe’s and the Boys & Girls Clubs of America. In 2016, Boys & Girls Clubs of America and Lowe’s teamed up to create Renovation Across the Nation, an initiative that has supported renovations at more than 180 Boys & Girls Clubs nationwide. Since its inception, Lowe’s has donated more than $11.5 million to support the initiative.
