Local businessman Larry Brady has made a transformational gift to the Boys & Girls Club of Vermillion in honor of his wife, Sue French. His support will help create more opportunities for Vermillion's youth to learn, grow and thrive.

Thank you, Larry, for investing in our community's future!

This , we’re celebrating the kind of generosity that changes lives. 💙✨

Our CEO, Jody Shaw Hernandez, had the honor of visiting Vermillion to meet with Larry Brady — a local businessman with a huge heart for kids. In honor of his late spouse, Sue French, Larry made a transformational investment in the Boys & Girls Club of the Northern Plains.

His incredible gift will help shape the future of our Vermillion Club for years to come, creating more opportunities for young people to learn, grow, and thrive in a safe, supportive space.

Thank you, Larry, for believing in our youth and investing in their futures. Your generosity reminds us that great futures truly do start here.
