The program offers a daily free nutritious snack for all children. It is a recreational program that also offers tutoring and mentoring, with programs curated for children who have completed Kindergarten through 12th grade in Lee County. Optional homework assistance is provided by a staff of adult and high school volunteers.
The Lee County Youth Center opened for its initial program in 2012 and operates as a non-profit organization that exists mainly on donations, grants, and gifts from community supporters. It holds several fundraisers each year to support center activities and staff and runs a scholarship fund that depends on donations from the community, with limited scholarships available to support families facing hardships. The organization operates with volunteers and a small number of part-time paid staff, including high school and college-age students, under the direction of a volunteer board of directors that meets monthly.
The volunteer board of directors includes Larry Orsag, President; Sandra Lopez, Vice President; Meredith Franks, Board Member; Charles Francis, Board Member; and Debbi Vance, Board Member. The mission statement for the Lee County Youth Center is: “We strive to provide quality, engaging activities in a safe and nurturing environment for the youth of Lee County.” One board member, Meredith Franks, describes the program as including “Mustard seed club, cooking school, mummies, castles, survival, bingo, darts, lollipop library and so many more fun things with adorable kids.” Board member Charles Francis shares a faith-based perspective on his role, and board member Debbi Vance states, “I wish to use my gifts and talents to improve the lives of others.” The LCYC is not a licensed daycare and is not licensed or regulated by the state.
