Dear Friends of the Boys & Girls Club:

Giving the gift of membership to a child for one of our Clubs provides peace of mind and security. Your gift of membership can offer so much to struggling single parents, or grandparents raising children. Your gift can offer a safe place with adult supervision to a child who would otherwise go home alone after school or be out on the streets.  Thousands of youth each year stay out of trouble and develop positive character and leadership skills through Boys & Girls Clubs programs.

Kids are Back in School. Are You Ready?

America’s future is at risk. Nationally, 30 percent of our youth drop out of high school. Such a situation threatens our nation’s future. Who will be tomorrow’s leaders?

It’s a crisis that affects everyone.

It’s daunting to think about solving such a widespread crisis, but those of us in youth organizations, such as the Boys & Girls Clubs of Union County have seen that it’s possible to turn things around.

For one thing, we don’t work alone. By creating partnerships with schools, community leaders and parents, and by hiring caring staff, Boys & Girls Clubs create a network and culture in which everyone embraces the importance of high school graduation.
