Member of the Auburn Mountainview High School baseball team, coaches and Principal Terri Herren joined Seattle Mariners General Manager Jerry Dipoto at the annual Federal Way/Auburn Boys and Girls Club Breakfast.
The Boys and Girls Club raised more than $50,000 at this year’s event.
“The Boys and Girls Clubs help keep our youth out of the juvenile justice system and offer stable after-school programs that help shape their future,” said King County Councilmember Pete von Reichbauer, the breakfast’s host. “According to recent studies, a youth incarcerated in Washington costs $132,000 per year, and early investment in our children will reduce youth incarcerations.”
