Kathy Hochul visited the Variety Boys and Girls Club of Queens (VBGCQ) to announce $5 million in state funding for the youth club's new state-of-the-art clubhouse.
The new clubhouse will be the largest boys and girls club in the country, featuring a regulation pool, a gymnasium, a teaching kitchen, a theater, and a planetarium.
Currently, Variety serves over 4,000 children and teens each year and has been serving Western Queens since 1955.
The $293 million redevelopment is set to break ground in December.
