“The Boys & Girls Clubs is an invaluable partner in our community, providing essential after-school programs for our teenagers to learn, grow, and thrive. Every brick in the foundation of the new Teen Center would serve as a reminder of the commitment of the Boys & Girls Clubs to offer a safe and inspiring space for growth and achievement.”

“Boys & Girls Clubs has changed me and my peers in so many ways. When I was younger and first started coming here, I wasn’t physically active. I was socially awkward and couldn’t make friends as well as everyone else. I would like to go to the military, and Boys & Girls Clubs has prepared me for that as far as making friends, respect, social ability, and self-love.”

“It is difficult to measure in dollars the amazing impact the Boys & Girls Clubs has on the community in Hampton Roads. Providing the youth a place where they can have a nurturing environment, learn, create lifetime friendships, and have a warm meal is invaluable.”
Kevin Will,
BGCSEVA President & CEO
“Family and education play a major role in shaping our values. Just as important, however, are the experiences we encounter and the time we spend beyond our homes and classrooms. BGCSEVA provides youth in our community with a safe, welcoming, and supportive place to be inspired, explore new opportunities, and to be supported by mentors who care about their success. This is critical to our region, and your investment makes our Club members’ great futures possible. There is no greater investment than the one made in ensuring the next generation is prepared to lead us in the future.”
