Recently, 52% of Boys & Girls Clubs of America alumni reported that participating in the Club "saved my life." Yet, providing life-changing programs for more than 13,000 young people in Boston and Chelsea bears a significant, annual cost.
Each year, Boys & Girls Clubs of Boston must raise nearly 80% of our operating budget from charitable gifts. Gifts to our Annual Fund help us provide a safe haven and fun, high-impact programming for at-risk children and teens across the city. Especially with violence on the rise in many of the neighborhoods we serve, your support means that we can be there for those youth who need us most. Please help ensure our ability to save lives by giving a gift to our Annual Fund. Your investment will have lasting impacts on the youth of Greater Boston.
Gifts of $100 and above are recognized with a listing in our Annual Report. Donors who make gifts at the $1,000 level or higher, or who make a gift at any level for five consecutive years are recognized with membership in one of BGCB's Recognition Societies. For more information, please view our Recognition Society overview page.
