Based in Fortuna, California, heavy civil contractor and construction materials provider Mercer Fraser Co. serves Humboldt County and beyond. With a strong community presence, Mercer Fraser Co. affiliates with charitable organizations such as The Boys & Girls Clubs of the Redwoods.
Serving children ages 6-18, The Boys & Girls Clubs of the Redwoods is a development program that offers a safe place for children to learn, play, and develop leadership skills. Among many other goals, the nonprofit aims to teach its youth four senses: a sense of competence, a sense of usefulness, a sense of belonging, and a sense of power or influence.
The organization focuses on five core areas of development: sports, fitness, and social recreation; character and leadership development; health and life skills; the arts; and education and career. The organization teaches these areas in the hopes that the youth it serves will engage in daily activities that will help them in a variety of ways, from homework help to developing leadership skills and a positive self-image, characteristics that are important for America’s youth to develop.
