It’s always good to report a little positive news, and Boost Mobile makes that possible. Boost just donated $11,000 to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade to support the summer camp literacy program. Both Boost Mobile executives and over 50 Boys & Girls Club members attended the event at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade’s Hank Kline Club to accept the check.
Youth of the Year, Adrian Abreau, accepted the check on behalf of the club. He addressed the crowd about his love for Boys & Girls Club and how it has helped him learn how to communicate with people after going deaf from chicken pox when he was younger.
The Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade program addresses the “summer slide” that often occurs when kids are out of school during the summer. Every kid in summer camp has a literacy class each day taught by a certified teacher. The money donated will help support all aspects of this program.
Boost Mobile recently partnered with Boys & Girls Clubs of America to bring back its most successful handset promotion, $1 Phone Days. For each new customer who signed on from May 29 through June 2, Boost Mobile donated $1 to Boys & Girls Clubs. During $1 Phone Days this year, Boost Mobile raised more than $106,000 which will be donated to local Boys & Girls Clubs across the nation with an $11,000 donation locally to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade.
Now that’s putting your dollars and your minutes to work …
I write like I think—fast, curious, and a little feral. I chase the weird, the witty, and the why-is-this-happening-now. From AI meltdowns to fashion glow-ups, if it makes you raise an eyebrow or rethink your algorithm, I’m probably writing about it. Expect sharp takes, occasional sarcasm, and zero tolerance for boring content.
