Teen center receives generous donation from Rubin Fund
The Salvation Army of Winnebago County is proud to announce it has received a $15,000 grant for The Salvation Army Tabernacle & YMCA Teen Center. The grant was awarded by the Dr. Louis & Violet Rubin Fund of the Community Foundation of Northern Illinois’ Community Grants Program. In partnership with the YMCA of Rock River Valley, the Teen Center at The Salvation Army Rockford Tabernacle Corps Community Center, 210 N. Kilburn, Rockford Ill., provides a safe environment for middle school and high school students to participate in intramural sports, character building activities, and visit with friends. The focus is on empowering youth in our community to devel-
op basic life skills, personal development, healthy lifestyles, and appropriate social interactions. The program is offered Mondays-Wednesdays from 5 to 7 p.m. for middle school and 7 to 9 p.m. for high school. Major Steve Kounthapanya, administrator of The Salvation Army Tabernacle Corps Community Center, states, “For over 130 years, The Salvation Army has provided programs and services on the west side of Rockford.
