A state grant of $152,000 is going to the Boys and Girls Clubs of Benton Harbor. CEO Mackenzie Kastl tells WSJM News the grant comes from COVID dollars received by the state. It’s a Before and After School and Summer Learning Community Based Organization grant. It will support Boys and Girls Club Summer Brain Gain programs for 200 kindergarten through 8th grade students at four Boys and Girls Club locations. “Our curriculum, which is called Summer Brain Gain, is really comprehensive,” Kastl said. “It covers those literacy pieces that your kindergarten through third graders really tend to soak up, hits on the science and math and really helps prepare kids for success.”
