Malon D. Mimms Boys & Girls Club

Malon D. Mimms Boys & Girls Club

In early April 2011, Christian Howard joined the Malon D. Mimms Boys & Girls Club weighing 169 lbs. Thanks to healthy lifestyles programs, nutritious foods and drinking plenty of water, in June Christian weighed in at a proud 125 lbs. The bad habits Christian once had are out the window now as he has also added 40 minutes of exercise to his daily routine. Everyday when he gets home from the Club Christian goes on a 40 minute bike ride or swims in his pool. Keep up the GREAT work Christian!

Brief History

Since 1996, the Cherokee County Boys & Girls Club has been in the forefront of youth development working with young people from economically disadvantaged, social, and family circumstances. Our club has actively sought to enrich the lives of boys and girls whom other youth agencies have not reached. We are dedicated to ensuring that our community’s of disadvantaged young people have greater access to quality programs and services that will enhance their lives and shape their futures as productive citizens. In 2007, the Club was moved from a school basement to a brand, new facility. The Club was named after Malon D. Mimms, owner of the Malon D. Mimms Company, in recognition of his great contributions to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Atlanta, as well as his positive endeavors and support in many local communities. His generous contributions have enabled BGCMA to serve more kids and enhance its child development services in Cherokee County. The new Club has more space for programs, activities, recreational and educational areas as well as offices for staff members.
