Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Boys & Girls Clubs, Children & Youth, Youth Centers & Clubs
Mission: Our mission is to inspire and enable young people from Pawtucket and surrounding communities, especially those with greatest need, to realize their full potential as healthy, productive, responsible, and caring citizens.
Programs: Since 1900, the boys & girls club of pawtucket has been a lifesaving agency to youth and families in pawtucket and surrounding communities. We currently serve more than 4,000 children annually in our 42,000 square foot building where we have the space for quiet learning, indoor exercise, art and music studio space, and most importantly, a place where kids know they will be warm and safe after school. We also benefit from a unique park like setting in urban pawtucket where youth can learn about nature and participate in a wide variety of sports and other activities on our fields and forested land. We are also in the midst of a major capital improvement project that will significantly improve upon our existing facility beginning in fiscal year 2015. (see continuation on schedule o)youth members choose a wide variety of daily programs to help them realize their full potential. These programs are focused on three areas, called our formula for impact: academic success, good character & citizenship, and healthy lifestyles.
