For the third consecutive year, the Foot Locker team at St. Louis Galleria has gone above and beyond to support Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater St. Louis (BGCSTL) members. On Wednesday, November 5, the team presented a $7,500 check at the Adams Park Club (APC) to fund critical programs that equip youth with essential academic and life skills needed to achieve great futures.
Foot Locker’s continued partnership with Boys & Girls Clubs of America and BGCSTL reflects its strong commitment to empowering local youth.
To the delight of Club members, the Foot Locker team celebrated the occasion with pizza, gift bags, and interactive games — bringing smiles and excitement throughout the Club. One member summed up the energy perfectly: “This is so much fun!”
“We are grateful to our loyal Foot Locker partners who faithfully raise funds for Boys & Girls Clubs,” said Brandon Williams, President/CEO of Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater St. Louis. “Their commitment ensures local youth have the resources they need to succeed.”
Special thanks to the dedicated St. Louis Galleria Foot Locker team for their generosity and hands-on involvement with Club members:
- Morgan Ward, District Manager
- Quinton Simms, Store Manager
- Venezia Manuel, Store Manager

This year’s $7,500 donation exceeds last year’s total of more than $6,000, demonstrating Foot Locker’s growing impact and commitment to BGCSTL youth.
The Adams Park Club, located in the Grove neighborhood, serves hundreds of local children and teens, offering programs that promote academic success, healthy lifestyles, and character development.
