The Boys & Girls Clubs of Boston (BGCB) has named former Berkshire Partners Blue Hill Club (Dorchester) membership director Felisha Lewis as the new director of the Orchard Gardens Club in Roxbury.

She replaces Russ Lamberti, who led the Club for six years before moving on to a new opportunity. 

Lewis will use her wealth of experience and relationships to build upon the Orchard Gardens Club’s foundation in providing enriching resources, facilities, and opportunities to Roxbury’s young people and families, according to BGCB.

“As a proud Dorchester native, I am excited to leverage my skills and bring my leadership to the Orchard Gardens Club. I look forward to connecting with parents and partners alike, and managing programs that offer our members fun and opportunity,” said Lewis.

With almost a decade with the organization, Lewis enters her new role with a great amount of experience and knowledge, both internally and externally, through her relationships with BGCB’s stakeholders. During her time as membership director of the Berkshire Partners Blue Hill Club, she served as the lead membership liaison for the members and families by conducting onboarding sessions, managing membership applications, and implementing health and safety protocols during the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Lewis is a second-generation American whose parents hail from Barbados.  She has a son in both the Boston Public School system and Boys & Girls Clubs of Boston.
