Reaching this goal positions the Club for a year of success & growth in 2021, despite the challenges of 2020! Help us continue serving the kids who need us most with our high quality youth development programs in a safe, positive environment.
Great Futures Start Here. That's the motto at Boys & Girls Club of the Pikes Peak Region, where staff work tirelessly to provide ALL youth with opportunities to succeed and build brighter futures. It is our mission, "To empower every Club member, through safe and impactful experiences, to: graduate high school with a plan for college or career, contribute to their community and live a healthy life."

We believe that every child deserves a chance at a great future, and with your support, the Club can continue delivering on our promise to provide every young person who enters our doors with high quality programming, positive mentorship, and a safe place.
Now more than ever, the Club needs your help. This year has brought significant challenges, and our young people need to know that regardless of what's going on in the world, we care about them. Your gift today shows our kids that the community stands behind its youth and that no matter what today brings, the future is still bright.
