Be Great Sponsorship: Firm Champions Local Youth

This year, Nowlan Law became a champion of local youth through a 2025 Be Great Sponsorship.

Last fall, Attorneys Tim Lindau and Mike Davis toured the Boys & Girls Club of Janesville.  This on-site visit gave them a better understanding of the programs and services it offers the community.   They learned more about the quality programming and resources that the Club provides.

While Nowlan Law has supported many fundraisers for The Club over the years, our Partners wanted to invest more into our community youth with a 2025 Be Great Sponsorship.  Be Great Sponsors help support the Club and educational programs all year long.

“During our tour, we learned that over 100 kids are still on a waiting list to receive services from the the Club,” Tim said. “We want every kid to have the same opportunity to become a productive member of our workforce.

Through Be Great Sponsorship, Nowlan Law is helping the Janesville youth who need it most.  The Boys & Girls Club is providing them with the critical resources they need to thrive.

Programs provided by the Boys & Girls Club of Janesville include:

• STEM activities, which connects youth to science, technology, engineering, and math through hands-on activities
• Art, which helps youth build their language and comprehension skills and improves literacy
• Triple Play, which focuses on healthy eating habits, physical activity, and building positive peer relationships
• Ultimate Journey-, which combines environmental science with developing leaders. Members practice problem-solving, critical thinking, and decision making
• SMART Girls, which provides health, fitness, prevention education, and self-esteem building for girls
• Passport to Manhood, which teaches responsibility to boys and focuses on specific aspects of character and manhood through interactive activities
• Be Great Graduate, which offers mentoring for middle and high school aged Club members who may be at risk of not graduating on time due to grades or behavioral issues
