Catherina Buccino
Catherina is an outstanding member at the club. She is an amazing, creative and innovative artist. She is smart, kind, grateful, compassionate and even a little silly! If you listen carefully to Cat, you will hear her giving other members a boost of confidence or a helping hand. Thank you Cat for being a fantastic you!
Jahlani Immanuel-I
Jahlani Immanuel-I is one of our most respectful and pleasant older members here at the Club. He is always helping others with a smile on his face and is a pleasure to be with. He is one of our most active Torch Club members and has just been elected Vice President. He even donates his time to come in and help early Saturday Mornings with Toddler Time.

The NBGC would like to send out a huge thank you to the Alliance for Substance Abuse Prevention for providing us with a generous grant for our Teen Program. A.S.A.P. is a cross-sector collaborative of various community members, working to provide leadership, education and support in the Nantucket community for the prevention of alcoholism, addiction, substance abuse, and related problems. We are delighted to continue to work with A.S.A.P. to help them reach their mission, and cannot thank them enough for their role in helping us to also reach ours!
Our teen program focuses on providing our teen members with enticing options for healthy extracurricular activities during times (particularly Friday and Saturday evenings), where without the Club, they would have little or no other options.
Thank you again to A.S.A.P for their continued support!
