OUR MISSION


To enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens.

Who We Are

For over 75 years, the Boys & Girls Club of Valdosta has provided the young people of our community who need us most a place of safety, enrichment, and opportunity. Today, we serve over 1,000 children and teens daily across seven sites in both Lowndes and Brooks County. Our doors are open each day afterschool and during the summer for children ages 5-18.

Purpose

 We believe every child deserves a safe place to learn and grow. At the Boys & Girls Club, we come alongside our community's families to provide just that: a space where our kids are safe, loved, and learning every day. Our children are growing up in a complex world.  At the Boys & Girls Club, kids are learning that good character and hard work open the door to a bright future.

Key Programs

Our programs are built around the core components of Character & Leadership, Academic Success, and Healthy Lifestyles. Each day, afterschool and in the summer, our sites operate full schedules including homework time, certified teachers, nutritious meals, and, of course, fun programs such as book club, robotics, the arts, kayaking, workforce development, and so much more!

There are so many ways to help at the Boys & Girls Club! Of course, your financial gift is completely transformative for our children as it provides meals, caring staff, transportation, and life-changing programming. However, donations like books, school or art supplies, or basketballs will always be put into action. If you are interested in investing in our kiddos through volunteering or applying to work with us, check out our resources page for applications.


However you become a friend of the Club, you will be changing lives. With a new year upon us, our kiddos need you now more than ever!
