Boys & Girls Clubs of America's mission is to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens. With this in mind, in communities large and small, caring Club staff are there for kids to help with homework, to give them new opportunities through stimulating academic programs and to open doors for youthful aspirations.

In fact, Academy-Award winning actor Denzel Washington, retired Army General Wesley Clark and many others attribute much of their success as an adult to the lessons learned as a member of their Boys & Girls Club. People from all walks of life feel the same way. Visit www.BeGreatAmerica.org to learn what many are saying about their Club experiences.

Boys & Girls Club alumni are shining examples of how Clubs help shape young people and assist them in achieving their dreams. Every child has the potential to BE GREAT and we can all play a part in supporting them as they reach for success.

Donors can support Clubs in creating a safe and positive environment where children can learn and grow. Club alumni can connect with their hometown Club and volunteer. Community leaders can advocate for kids.

Support Boys & Girls Clubs of America and send the message that all young people can BE GREAT!
