Gwen has worked with the Boys & Girls Club and the youth of Sheboygan County since 2006. During this time, she’s held leadership roles at several sites, including the Sheboygan Falls youth and teen clubs and the Ralph and Alice Stayer Club in Sheboygan. In her current role, Gwen drives the impact the organization has on youth and teens.

“The Boys & Girls Club provides opportunities for kids to learn and grow. Whether it is a friendly 'hello,' a listening ear, or a helping hand, Club staff make the difference in kids’ lives.”

It’s the opportunity to be part of this difference that motivates Gwen to come to the Club with the same passion and commitment as the first day she started.
