Boys & Girls Clubs of North Central Georgia recently named David Burbach as its Board Member of the Year for 2020-2021.

David Burbach first arrived at Madison-Morgan Boys & Girls Club when his wife committed them to being a contestant for the first Madison Dancing with the Stars fundraiser. From there, he was hooked on serving the youth of Morgan County.

David became actively involved in the cycling program for MMBGC and was invited to serve on MMCBGC’s board.

“I began to learn more about all the opportunities the Club offers our young people, as well as working with a wonderful group of people who are so positive and dedicated to the mission of the Club,” he shared. “I get to be a small part of an organization that truly loves and cares for the youth of our community and through our actions we provide hope for the children that we serve. It’s priceless.”

One of David’s favorite memories with the youth of MMCBGC is when he asked the teens and tweens of the Club to volunteer in helping teach the younger Club members in the cycling program.

“The older kids eagerly took on leadership and coaching roles,” he shared. “They did everything from helmet fitting and seat adjustments to lining the kids up and keeping them in single file while riding. And best of all, the older ones felt such a sense of pride and the younger ones had such good models to look up to! We all learned from each other.”

David was surprised and humbled to be named Board Member of the Year.

“David Burbach is a wonderful example of what it means to give back to our youth with our time, treasure, and talent,” Bob Mackey, President and CEO of BGCNCG, shared. “He is always eager to show up for the youth of Morgan County and share the impacts of the Boys & Girls Clubs of North Central Georgia. He believes in making a positive impact on the youth of today with encouragement and mentorship.”
