A Night of Gratitude, Generosity & Community
As a team at Boys & Girls Club of Detroit Lakes, we are filled with gratitude as we reflect on a truly special evening, one that beautifully captured the spirit of generosity, connection, and community.
We extend a heartfelt thank you to Bell Bank and Josh Duhamel for selecting the Boys & Girls Club of Detroit Lakes as the beneficiary of the Pay It Forward donation through Drekker Brewing Company. This meaningful gift is more than just a financial contribution — it is an investment in the youth we serve every single day.
The evening itself was nothing short of unforgettable. Set against the historic backdrop of the Fargo Theatre, we had the honor of receiving this donation during the premiere of Josh’s film, Preschool, as part of the Fargo Film Festival. The energy in the room was electric — filled with excitement, pride, and a shared commitment to making a difference.
Moments like this remind us of the power of community. When organizations like Bell Bank, partners like Drekker Brewing Company, and individuals like Josh Duhamel come together with a purpose to give back, the impact is profound. Their generosity helps ensure that our Club can continue to provide a safe, supportive, and inspiring environment where young people can learn, grow, and thrive.
Every dollar donated translates into opportunities — homework help, mentorship, healthy meals, and life-enriching programs that shape the leaders of tomorrow. Because of supporters like these, we are able to dream bigger and serve more youth across our community.
To Bell Bank, Josh Duhamel, and everyone who made this evening possible, thank you for believing in our mission and in the potential of every child who walks through our doors.
Together, we are building brighter futures.
With Gratitude,
Boys & Girls Club of Detroit Lakes
