The David Lashley Scholarship Program
Helping us make a difference in the lives of our youth and families by making membership and programs accessible…
The mission of the Donald W. Reynolds Boys & Girls Club of Fayetteville is “serving the youth of our community to make a difference by providing social, physical, academic, cultural and family experiences in a safe environment to develop a value system that will improve the quality of their lives and lead them to become productive citizens.”
In order to fulfill this mission, we believe that our programs and services should be available those who need them the most. Thanks to the many supporters of the Boys & Girls Club, we are able to provide financial assistance through the David Lashley Scholarship Program.
The David Lashley Scholarship Program is based solely on your family’s household income.
