Today, we remember and honor the extraordinary life and lasting legacy of Mr. Cliff Hagan: a truly one-of-a-kind man, icon, and legend to so many. 💙🌟

Cliff was not only an extraordinary athlete and community leader; he was a champion for young people. As the namesake of the Cliff Hagan Boys & Girls Club organization, his impact reaches far beyond a name. His belief in the potential of every child continues to inspire our work each day. 🫶

His legacy lives on through the young people we serve, the opportunities we create, and the safe, encouraging spaces we provide across our communities. From after-school programs and mentorship to new experiences and lifelong friendships, we are proud to carry forward the spirit of hope, encouragement, and possibility that Cliff represented. 🏀❤️

Among his many well-deserved honors, Cliff was inducted into the Boys & Girls Clubs of Kentucky Hall of Fame—a reflection of the profound difference he made for generations of youth. 🏆👏 His accomplishments were remarkable, but the way he cared for and inspired others is what makes his legacy so enduring.

We are deeply grateful for the example he set and honored to carry his name forward. Thank you, Cliff, for believing in young people and helping change so many lives. Your legacy will forever live on in our Clubs and in the hearts of all who were inspired by you. 💫🫶

Check out his From the Rafters of Rupp interview with Kyle Macy to learn more about his historic legacy and what the Club meant to him.

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

That’s a wrap on our first group of Fall Cooking Classes!

We are so thankful to Cargill for sponsoring these amazing opportunities for our members and their families at Joys Cooking Classes and More.

🍗Week #2: We continued the fun by making chicken nuggets and mashed potatoes! Members learned the proper way to hold a knife, safety in the kitchen, and what seasoning they like!

🍝Our Final Week: we wrapped up the program by creating their very own pasta dishes from scratch! Most of us left feeling like we just finished a workout but the results were delicious.

Beyond the delicious food, these classes provided opportunities to build confidence, practice teamwork, strengthen family connections, and create memories together. ❤️

THANK YOU, Cargill & Chef Ashley!🍂🧑‍🍳
