ROCK SPRINGS — The Boys and Girls Club of Sweetwater County (BGCSC) recently received a $10,000 grant thanks to Rock Springs State Farm agent, Victor Hiler.

“At State Farm, we are committed to helping build stronger communities,” Hiler said. “For me, it’s not enough to simply say State Farm is a Good Neighbor, we embrace the responsibility to make this community better by being a part of a solution.”

The BGCSC was selected by Hiler as part of their recognition for being one of 100 State Farm agents nationwide who were nominated and selected for their outstanding community engagement. The local insurance agent has a long history of demonstrating what it means to be a “Good Neighbor” by stepping up to help his community.

“The Boys and Girls Club of Sweetwater County provides guidance, leadership and programming in the areas of Education, Character and Leadership, Healthy Habits, Art, Recreation and STEAM,” BGCSC Program Director Jennifer Kendall said. “In addition to the quality programming we provide to our Club families, we help provide scholarships to those in need; food for families to cook when home, and community resources to help with day to day living.”

“The gift of the State Farm grant will allow for our BCGSC Team to program with higher integrity and quality to benefit club members. As a non-profit, we are very appreciative of the opportunity we have been provided by State Farm Agent Victor Hiler, who has always been a very big supporter of our organization. We love to have the support of local businesses and community members, to help provide a safe, reliable and fun atmosphere for our youth to enjoy. Thank you again!”
