Buena Vista Optimist Club, an affiliate of Optimist International, is a local, all volunteer, charitable organization established November of 1974. All net proceeds of the club's fundraising efforts go to support youth in the Buena Vista community - such as college scholarships, after-school programs, and so many other youth-focused programs and causes.
One of the key focus areas is the Backpack Program. The Backpack Program is a food assistance program focused on covering weekend needs of youth in the community. The program aims to provide Saturday's / Sunday's breakfast, lunch, and dinner - supporting 60 - 75 children each week. The BV Optimists aim to raise $5,000 each year to support this endeavor.
