Dear Friends:

Connecting with our community partners is a top priority, whether on-line, or in person, BCS YES! is strengthened by your involvement and support.

This year, BCS YES! commemorates 130 years of sheltering and caring for children and youth since 1879. As we celebrate this historic milestone, we pause to express our gratitude for the generous outpouring of financial resources, in-kind contributions, and volunteer services that so many of our neighbors and friends entrust to us on a daily basis.

We are pleased to announce the appointment of Laurence W. Buchholz to the position of Executive Director. Larry has been on staff since 1990, serving most recently as Director of Finance. In the role of finance director, Larry developed a solid working knowledge of the contractual and regulatory framework under which BCS YES! operates. He is adroit at providing practical solutions to whatever problem may be at hand and is well respected among Staff members.

BCS YES! is not immune to what is occurring in the domestic and global economy. Our response has been proactive and positive.

As you ‘click’ through the pages of this site, please know that we endeavor each day to be worthy of your support by providing the best care possible to disadvantaged youth. Thank you for giving. Together, we can meet the vast needs of homeless children age 13 through 18 in our group homes and shelters.

Blessings and peace,

Kenneth D. Campbell
President
