What Are Boys & Girls Clubs?
Boys & Girls Clubs nationwide offer fun and enriching after-school programs and summer programs for youth ages 6-18. Sports leagues, STEM labs and summer camps. Community engagement and college scholarships. Through safe places, caring mentors and life-enhancing experiences, Clubs do whatever it takes for youth to reach their full potential.
Why Join a Boys & Girls Club?
For parents, the Club is a support system you can count on. Clubs offer affordable membership rates and are open when parents and caregivers need them most: during after-school hours and in the summer. At the Club, young people are met by caring, trained staff ready to ignite their interests, build their confidence and champion their great future. Take it from this parent:
“When my children are at the Club, I know they are learning, interacting with their peers, receiving life experiences and building leadership skills that they would not have learned anywhere else. My kids are more productive and better people because of the Club.” -Becky S., Club parent
