In every
community, boys and girls are left to find their own recreation and
companionship in the streets. An increasing number of children are at
home with no adult care or supervision. Young people need to know that
someone cares about them. Every day Boys & Girls Clubs inspire their members. Whether
encouraging young people to complete their homework, play sports or
recreational activities, enter an art competition or have a healthy
snack, Club staff know the important role they play in creating the
wholesome environment kids need.
The United States is facing a national crisis with soaring high school
drop-out rates, coupled with low fitness and high obesity within our
young people. Boys & Girls Clubs are providing solutions to this
national epidemic through homework help, engaging and fun nutritional
tips, energizing sports and recreational activities and challenging
academic programs. Throughout the nation, Clubs are reaching out to a
generation at risk by providing positive guidance and exciting
opportunities.
The Boys
& Girls Club of Greater Billerica, offers that and more. Club programs and services
promote and enhance the development of boys and girls by instilling a
sense of competence, usefulness, belonging and influence.
Boys & Girls Clubs are a safe place to learn and grow - all while having fun. It's true: Great Futures Start Here!
