About us
Our mission is to inspire and empower all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens. Boys & Girls Clubs of Elkhart County is a youth development organization with over 65 years of experience staffed by skilled, caring professionals who see potential in every child and teen that walks through our doors. Our mission is to inspire and empower all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential, as productive, caring, responsible, citizens. We are here to elevate the youth of our community and let them know that they are capable, worthy and important. We offer safe places where young people can learn, grow, and succeed. Since the doors of The Goshen Boys Club first opened in 1956, our organization has been a force for good in the lives of young people. As soon as Club members walk through our doors, they enter an environment of stability, consistency, and physical and emotional safety. Each day, we welcome more than 1,300 youth between the ages of six and 18 to our Clubhouses and school-based sites. Each day we build deeply powerful relationships with the youth we serve and open avenues of opportunity for young people across our community. Our Clubhouses run programs designed to be fun and engaging, while building skills and confidence for a successful future. Our areas of focus include Academic Success and Career Development, Good Character and Citizenship, and Healthy Lifestyles. In addition, we offer programs in Sports and Recreation and the Creative Arts and have specialized programming for Teen members. We are located in neighborhoods where the greatest need exists. We’re open when kids need us most - after school, on most school breaks, and all day during the summer. Today, we have locations in Elkhart, Goshen, Middlebury, and Nappanee and serve over 6,000 youth annually.

🔥 Recapping an Unforgettable BBQ & Brew Fest! 🍔 This past Saturday, the Jayco family came together at the Elkhart County 4-H Fair Grounds for the 2024 BBQ & Brew Fest—and what a night it was! We had an incredible time enjoying drinks, delicious burgers and live music from Blammo, all while supporting the Boys & Girls Clubs of Elkhart County. A huge shoutout to our Jayco team who participated and wowed the crowd with their mouthwatering burger! 👏 Check out some of the highlights from the event below. We’re so proud to have been part of such a fantastic community event that brings people together for a great cause. #JaycoFamily #BBQ #SupportLocal #ElkhartCounty

The Elkhart teens also were able to explore the Adventure Science Center and the National Museum of African American Music during their trip. As a bonus, the Teens were able to squeeze in some fun at Strike and Spare Family Fun Center/Circus World, Madame Tussauds, Top Golf, and the Great Big Game Show! #GreatFuturesStartHere --- Como parte de nuestras iniciativas de preparación para la universidad y la fuerza laboral, los miembros del Elkhart Teen Club tuvieron la oportunidad de pasar cuatro días en Nashville, Tennessee, visitando la Universidad Vanderbilt, la Universidad Fisk y el edificio del Capitolio del Estado de Tennessee.

This year was our first time participating in the Elkhart County BBQ & Brew Festival and we had an absolute blast!🍻🎉 We didn't snag the coveted Grill Master title but we did score a golden ticket from one of the judges so we count that as a win. We want to give a huge THANK YOU to everyone who joined us and voted for the SURF SMASH SUPREME, helping us raise over $2600 to support the Boys & Girls Clubs of Elkhart County! We hope you had as much fun as we did and we can't wait to do it again next year! #SurfInternet #BoysAndGirlsClub #ElkhartCounty #Telecommunications
