BEND, OR -- The Boys and Girls Club of Bend has announced they will be providing assistance for kids who need help with comprehensive distance learning. Development Director  Rachel Cardwell says support they’ve received removes financial barriers for students to come to the club through donations from various partners. She says they have received about 108-thousand dollars and continue to ask for help with funding. The program guarantees broadband access for everyone to log in to live instruction. Cardwell says the club still has space available in the first and second grade cohorts.
