The Importance of Summer Camp
Seventy-five percent of parents report that high costs prevent them from sending their kids to summer programs, and more than half say limited nearby options are also a major factor. With more than 5,500 locations nationwide, Boys & Girls Clubs open the door to enriching summer experiences that are affordable for families and accessible to millions of kids.

Summer Brain Gain
School may be out, but learning is always in at Boys & Girls Clubs. It’s estimated that during the summer, most youth lose about two months’ worth of math skills, and youth living in low-income households also lose the same in reading skills – and these learning losses can stack up year-over-year.
Summer Brain Gain is our summer education program that connects fun and friendship with a project-based learning approach to keep kids on track for a successful transition back to school in the fall. Campers will learn through discovery, creative expression, group work and a final product or production.
