When we open the Club door for kids today, we shape all of our tomorrows. Every day after school, kids and teens in the Twin Counties walk through the doors of a Boys & Girls Club. Inside these doors, they are greeted and mentored by caring adults. They are seen, known, and feel a sense of belonging. They have life-changing experiences and learn about career opportunities they didn’t know existed. Their futures are bright, and it’s all made possible through the support of our community and generous folks like you. The America of tomorrow will be shaped by the way we invest in our kids today.

 

When you make a gift of any amount to Boys & Girls Clubs of the Tar River Region, you open doors for future-ready leaders who will propel our community forward.

 

Kids today don’t have it easy. Anxiety, stress, and depression rates among kids and teens are at an all time high, with 2 out of 5 high schoolers feeling sad and hopeless. These stressors are compounded for youth experiencing disadvantages, like many of our Club members. Your donation gives kids and teens the boost they need to overcome these challenges – and thrive! The impact is real:

 

97% of Club Kids expect to graduate on time (vs. 87% nationwide)
95% are reading on grade level, while 2 in 3 U.S. students are behind
They eat healthier, move more, and access critical mental health programs
Your gift opens doors to brighter futures:
$25/month: Homework help & academic support
$100/month: Full Club access, meals, and mentorship for one child
$450 one-time: Weeks of summer learning with a proffesional staff member

$1,260 one-time: A full year of growth—after school and summer

 

Your gift even goes beyond the walls of the Club. For every $1.00 you invest in Boys & Girls Clubs, youth, families and their community see an average of $10.32 in economic and social benefits. Every dollar donated helps open the door to lifelong success for a young person in this community.
