The Giving Coast

Boys & Girls Clubs of Sarasota and DeSoto Counties (BGCSDC) is proud to announce that the 2025 Champions for Children gala will honor the extraordinary legacy of Charles and Margery Barancik, whose lifelong commitment to youth empowerment through education and opportunity continues to help local youth reach their full potential.
