About Club
The Boys & Girls Club of Greater Green Bay has a place for every child. We offer a safe, inviting, place to learn and grow – all while having fun. Club programs and services promote and enhance the development of local youth (7-17) by instilling a sense of belonging, passion, and confidence. We are proud to serve nearly 500 youth each day and pride ourselves on being caring adults that youth can trust to support them and assist in removing barriers as needed.
Club is the place where great futures are started each and every day. In our Clubhouses and at our after school sites, professionally trained staff offer a variety of programs that intentionally focus on six pillars of success. These pillars include equity, diversity, & inclusion, healthy lifestyles, social emotional learning, creative arts & STEM, mentorship & academic success, and workplace readiness. Through our "Universal, Targeted, and Intense" approach to programming, we aim to meet every child where they are at, creating a highly individualized Club experience to ensure the growth of each child. No matter the program, the secret recipe is in providing enriching educational opportunities by cleverly disguising them as fun.
In the last ten years, the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Green Bay has won 19 National Awards for program excellence. Our staff is dedicated to giving our members our best, so they can find the best in themselves. We seek out unique opportunities for members providing once in a lifetime opportunities such as national leadership conferences, working side by side with local artists, community service projects, and more. Each of these not only leave youth with lasting memories but help them grow and learn in new ways.
Not only do we offer after school and summer programming, we are also proud to have launched our Be Great: Graduate program in 2011. The goal of this program is to work one on one with students who are identified as at risk of dropping out of school and together remove barriers, provide words of encouragement, doing whatever we can to help them cross the finish line (graduate high school). In the process graduation specialists work with each student and help them identify their passions and pathways they can pursue post- graduation ensuring they are ready to take their next step whether that is joining the workforce, pursing higher education, or joining the military. Since the programs conception in 2011 Be Great: Graduate expanded into local schools in 2018. It is now in 10 middle and high schools around the greater Green Bay area, with 11 graduation specialists serving over 200 students each year.
We are honored to be a part of the lives of local youth. Thank you to all our community partners and donors that invest in our young leaders and make our work possible.
