The Benton Harbor Boys and Girls Club will benefit from a $37,000 federal grant.

The funding, from the Department of Justice, will support Project Learn by paying for tutors that will help children with their homework twice a week at a community center.

The funds will also support transportation costs to make it easier for children to visit the Boys & Girls Club three days per week.
