The $1.2 million donation will be divided equally between the following Boy & Girls Clubs, many of which serve predominantly socio-economically disadvantaged communities: "We look forward to seeing how they find unique ways to use this gift to help their members learn, lead and grow."

"We know that each of our communities are different and that each of the Clubs understand the wants and needs of their members best," said Cathy Cooper, Senior Director of Community Partnerships and Giving at Meijer. The retailer's gift will fund development programs focused on health, academics and leadership for Boys & Girls Club members. "Boys & Girls Clubs offer safe places for children and teens to grow into the future leaders our communities will need, and we're pleased to support them through this donation." "As a family-owned business, serving families, and especially children, in our communities is always important to us," Meijer President & CEO Rick Keyes said.

Meijer is donating $1.2 million to dozens of Boys & Girls Clubs serving its communities across Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin.
