Efrain-youth-of-the-year-headshots-2023-Transparent

Efrain J. | Harry & Sandy Rosenzweig Branch

Efrain has shown a great commitment towards himself, his peers, family and Club throughout his time attending his Branch. He is a role model not only to his siblings but to younger members at his Club. He has his own T-shirt printing business and spends his free-time creating new designs for his customers. In the future, he wants to continue building his business by working with companies to design their uniforms along with exploring career opportunities with NASA.

Q: What is your favorite thing about High School?

My favorite thing about high school is that I get to meet people that have similar interests and struggles as me. One of my biggest interests is basketball where I get to learn and compete with others. It challenges me to be better.

Q: What is one thing (or your favorite thing) you’ve had the opportunity to do because of the Boys & Girls Club?

My biggest opportunity and favorite thing that has happened at the Boys & Girls Club is that I got to make more friends that actually feel comfortable with me and who I am. I get to be myself at the Club.

Q: If you could live in a book, tv show, or movie, what would it be and why?

If I could live in a tv show I would choose All American because it shows me that whatever happens in life, I have to stay strong and keep going.
