LOS ANGELES COUNTY — During today’s meeting, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved a motion by Supervisor Kathryn Barger to allocate $135,000 to renovate the Mackenzie-Scott Clubhouse at the Boys and Girls Club of Pasadena.
“I welcome any opportunity to support the heartfelt work of the Boys and Girls Club of Pasadena, which inspires children and youth and provides quality programs to promote academic success, healthy living, leadership development and character growth,” said Supervisor Kathryn Barger.
The Boys and Girls Club of Pasadena serves more than 2,000 kids and teens in the Pasadena area each year. The Mackenzie-Scott Clubhouse, located in Northwest Pasadena, has been in continuous operation for nearly 50 years and provides children and youth with a safe and fun place to call their own. The proposed renovations will enhance the existing clubhouse with replaced flooring, resurfaced gym walls, ceiling repairs, and upgraded electrical systems. This funding was allocated through excess funds available through Proposition A to the Fifth Supervisorial District.
The Boys and Girls Club of Pasadena has been an essential part of the Pasadena community for decades, fulfilling their mission to enable all young people, especially those most in need, to reach their full potential as productive, caring and responsible citizens.
