North
Myrtle Beach, SC – August 2016 / Newsmaker Alert / Global
Connections Inc. (GCI), a pioneer in the travel club industry, announced
that Club Loco, a distributor
of its travel club product Global
Discovery Vacations, has donated $3,000 to Teen
Angels, an organization which helps homeless and underprivileged high
school teens. A portion of the monies donated will be used to start the
Teen Angels program in North Myrtle Beach Middle School and the balance
will be used for the existing program in North Myrtle Beach High School.
Teen
Angels, a non-profit organization, is headed by Renee Hembree and based
at North Myrtle Beach High School. This organization assists these kids
in both the local high school and the middle school by providing schoolbooks,
yearbooks, personal care products, transportation to dentists and doctors,
and other small items so that these students can stay in school and have
a better future. Teen Angels further offers assistance with college expenses
for its youth that have been successful in this program.
According
to Alena Lopez, Office Manager of Club Loco, “The donation is particularly
noteworthy because it is allowing the program to expand into the North
Myrtle Beach Middle School. My child is starting in that middle school
and it brought home the need of our community to support the program.”
Ray
Lopez, President of Club Loco said, “We are proud to be caring members
of the business community which supports worthwhile local groups such as
Teen Angels. This is the kind of grass roots organization which really
makes a difference.”
