Shonte Clay-Fulgham

Shonte says she chooses to work for the Club because there is no greater mission. “The impact the Boys & Girls Club has on children for the rest of their lives will ultimately impact the world- as these children are our future leaders- and to play a small part in that is truly a blessing and honor."

Shonte has her bachelor’s degree in communications/Spanish and her master’s degree in sports management and administration. She comes to the Club family with a wealth of prior experience including sales management, marketing, corporate partnerships and athletic coaching. Some of her special honors and certifications include Equity, Diversity & Inclusion facilitation and workplace certification, Franklin Covey Unconscious Bias training, and LGBTQIA+ Safezone Certification.

Shonte lives with her husband in Springfield. Together, they have two children, Sage and Eli. They love attending sporting events, playing sports, taking weekend visits to the zoo, music, volunteering and serving at their church. Personally, Shonte enjoys professional networking, personal fitness, Mexican food and crime shows!
