Mission Statement
The fact that the mentoring needs of at-risk youth are gowing- at the same time that there is a shortage of mentors to help them- is deeply troubling. Boys and Girls Clubs reach thousands of at-risk youth residing in our nation's most distressed communitites. Clubs deliver a proven youth development strategy.
Boys & Girls Clubs are a safe place to learn and grow - all while having fun. It is the place where great futures are started each and every day.
In every community, boys and girls are left to find their own recreation and companionship in the streets. An increasing number of children are at home with no adult care or supervision. Young people need to know that someone cares about them.
Boys & Girls Clubs offer that and more. Club programs and services promote and enhance the development of boys and girls by instilling a sense of competence, usefulness, belonging and influence.
Boys & Girls Clubs are a safe place to learn and grow - all while having fun. It is the place where great futures are started each and every day.
