Muncie, IN—The annual Boys & Girls Clubs of Muncie’s Just Desserts fundraiser, presented by Heidi J Hale, is scheduled for September 25, 2021 at 4 p.m. This event will be held in person at the Clubs’ Madison Street location.

Just Desserts is exactly what it says – it is all about desserts. Sponsors will be able to purchase tables and they, and their guests, will bid for desserts created by local bakers. This year, the goal is to raise $25,000 to support the Clubs’ SMART Girls program, which goes with the theme Smart Girls – Empowered Women.

SMART Girls is a small-group health, fitness, prevention/education and self-esteem enhancement program designed to meet the developmental needs of girls in three age groups, spanning ages 8 to 18. Through dynamic sessions, participatory activities, field trips and mentoring opportunities with adult women, Club girls explore their own societal attitudes and values as they build skills for eating right, staying physically fit, getting good health care and developing positive relationships with peers and adults.

To purchase a sponsorship, please go to bgcmuncie.org/justdesserts or contact Amy Gibson at 765-282-4461 or agibson@bgcmuncie.org
