About this organization
Mission
The mission of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Kansas City is to promote the development of self-esteem, values, and skills for boys and girls, ages 5 to 18, with special emphasis on youth from disadvantaged circumstances. Our primary organizational focus is on supporting and guiding all active members to graduate high school with post-secondary plans in place. We strive to provide life-changing programs at eight Club units across the greater Kansas City metropolitan area, including six traditional Club sites and two school sites. We have three Club Units in Independence, Missouri; three Club Units in Kansas City, Missouri; one Club Unit in Kansas City, Kansas; and one Club Unit in Olathe, Kansas. Club membership is open to all children, ages 5-18. Each member is asked to pay an annual membership fee of $15 per year. For this amount, Club members may be in the Club anytime it is open. Each Club offers more than twenty youth development programs delivered within the framework of five core areas: Education & Career Development, Healthy Lifestyles, Public Speaking & Leadership, the Arts, and Technology. Our members are predominantly living in our community's toughest neighborhoods and face a number of additional hurdles in their lives. The Clubs provide a a beacon of hope and opportunity for the young people who need us most. Our goal is to provide our members with what each of us wants for the young people in our lives - healthy meals, access to opportunities, exposure to new ideas and experiences, and a positive outlet to mold and follow aspirations. During the summer, our Clubs are open from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. every weekday for nine weeks. This component of our overall programming provides rigorous STEM and literacy enrichment programming, which has made substantial impact on summer learning loss over the last several years. We supplement year round staff with certified teachers to maximize impact during the summer. But it is still the Club, thus providing a fun outlet as well as a learning environment for our members all summer long.
