Boys & Girls Clubs of Northeast Ohio

Our mission is to enable young people who need us most to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens. BGCC focuses on three impact areas: Academic Success: We promote education as an essential tool for adult achievement. Programs seek to increase graduation rates, decrease school absenteeism, and encourage kids to create post-secondary goals through teaching basic educational disciplines, technology, and the arts. Character & Citizenship: This impact area focuses on developing young leaders who engage themselves in their communities. We provide key programs that foster character development, healthy interpersonal relationships, and emphasize contributing to the community. Healthy Lifestyles: This impact area encourages children to reach their full potential through making positive choices that nurture their minds, bodies, and spirits. We encourage our Club members to set goals, avoid risky behavior, and engage in physical activity. We remember that the decisions children make today impact their future success.
