End of Year Campaign
Since our first program, the Ballston Area Recreation Commission (BARC) has provided recreational, enrichment and sports development programming to nearly 50,000 students.
BARC is very proud of our contributions in helping to raise our community youth. We hope you’ll take a moment to invest in the many more decades of innovative programs and services to come! We are so very grateful for your kind and generous support.
Hoffman Car Wash: Helping Hands (Ongoing)
We put together a quick and easy fundraiser to get a head start on our 2023 production of Into the Woods. This fundraiser gifts a little something for you or for gift giving as well.
This is an ongoing Hoffman Helping Hands Fundraiser at the following link: http://www.hoffmanhelpinghands.com/fundraisers/BARCYouthTheatre2023
What’s nice about this fundraiser is 50% of all purchases go directly into our program! Not to mention, CLEAN CAR!! Winter is no fun for our cars and salt and sand are not our friends! Take care of yourself (your car), your family and friends, and support our program all with just the click of a button! Thank you all for your support!
