Success Stories
Words of Gratitude from Boys Town Youth
"Without Boys Town, I would not be graduating, would definitely not be going to college. I don't know where I'd be and I don't even want to imagine it."
If I wouldn't have landed in Boys Town, myself and my older brother would have been either in jail or dead.
I would definitely be up to no good.
Either still in Foster Care or be dead.
They saved my life.
I think I would be in jail.
Definitely wouldn't be here today talking to you.
Without Boys Town, I would not be graduating, would definitely not be going to college. I don't know where I'd be and I don't even want to imagine it.
"It helps people like me who don't have a family to lean on."
I would say this year I'm thankful for the opportunity to be able to pursue my dream. I think I'm most thankful for this year is probably the friends I made at Boys Town. I'm most thankful for my family and my family teachers. I'm most thankful for my family teachers and all my coaches. For my family. For my family teachers helping me grow. This year I'm thankful for the people I have around me, the people I can lean on. Thank you.
I'm thankful for those who support Boys Town because I wouldn't be here without them. Because they gave me a second chance. Because of the opportunities they've given us and the things that they provide for us. Without them, we wouldn't have what we have here today. I'm thankful for those who support Boys Town because I probably would have been a very different person if not for Boys Town. Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you for supporting Boys Town. Thank you.
