There's No Place Like the Club

Every kid deserves a place: a place to feel safe. A place to feel connected. A place to belong. Boys & Girls Clubs of Springfield provides a safe place for out-of-school time at seven Club locations serving several Springfield-area schools.

"Some kids, like myself, don’t have people in our life outside the Club to rely on. It feels amazing to not be alone. They welcome anyone with any kind of challenges they might be facing. At Henderson, you feel safe and like you can be yourself without being judged or laughed at."
Anonymous Henderson Unit Member

“I cannot say enough about this program! We are more than blessed to partner with BGC and to have them in our building as a part of our school family. The service they provide for families is affordable, top-notch and for a lot of our students—a saving grace.”
Crystal Magers, Sherwood Elementary School Principal

“Growing up in the Boys & Girls Club, I always felt genuinely supported. I always had a safe place to hang out after school and plenty of homework help when I needed it.”
Teran Harris, Boys & Girls Clubs of Springfield Alumni
