Glenn Permuy
Member of the Board of Trustees
"In my role with Boys & Girls Clubs of America, I have an obligation to help safeguard the well-being of our local affiliates. The Trust offers me one more way to do that because it allows Clubs to proactively budget and control their unemployment costs. That means they have more dollars available for direct service to kids. For that reason alone, I am happy to serve on the Trust's board."
