By the time this little Sunnydale resident is four, she could be in licensed childcare at the new Hub. By 10 she might be spending afternoons getting homework help at the Boys & Girls Club, darting from jump rope to swing on the new playground, and taking dance classes in the gym. As a teen, she could find herself researching colleges with help from the Boys & Girls Club staff, learning collaboration from her basketball team, and volunteering at the community center in the evening. The Hub will open many doors for her.
