Mariah Engram, ensuring that Great Futures Start HERE.

Mariah, now a volunteer at the Boys & Girls Clubs of North Louisiana, spent her childhood at the Club after school and during the summers as a Club Member! She attributes many core memories to BGC, specifically spending summers in the pool surrounded by her friends.

Growing up, Mariah's mom was in school while also working two jobs. If it weren't for the Boys & Girls Clubs, Mariah wouldn't be the woman she is today. "It was a saving grace for me," she said. Mariah feels she has come full circle during her time back at the Club. She loves to visit and pour back into the kids that are growing up in the same rooms she did as a Club kid.
