The Boys & Girls Club offers kids that need it most an opportunity for a great future. There is amazing work that is transforming lives at the club and we can reach more kids in need with your support.

Dr. Michael Rocha, a member of the Board, said because of generous donors, their work provides opportunity and makes a difference:

-98.5% of our Club members annually achieve academic promotion to their next grade level.

-80% of our Club members participated in specialized programs aimed at exercise and healthy eating

-Over the past year average daily attendance increased by 50 more additional youth per day attending the Club

-100% of our Club Members feel safe and inspired by coming to the Club.

At the Boys & Girls Club, kids learn leadership skills, enhance their academic progress, and absorb the importance of an active and healthy lifestyle. It is a sad fact that many children don’t have positive role models in their lives. For the 1,000+ kids we serve, they have caring professional adults who believe in them.  You will be recognized for your generosity by being part of the Boys & Girls Club of Greater New Bedford’s “Century Club”.
