As summer comes to a close and our Summer Camp ends, a new school year begins for our kids. Kids need somewhere safe and positive to go after the school day ends while their parents are away for work. Kids need somewhere to go where they have a caring adult and peers to connect with. Kids need a place like the Boys & Girls Clubs of Lanier where they can learn, engage and grow in a caring and supportive environment. The Boys & Girls Clubs of Lanier serves over 1,400 youth each day across 21 Club locations in 4 different counties surrounding Lake Lanier.
In our afterschool program, kids will have the opportunity to engage in educational activities, receive supplemental tutoring, enjoy nutritious meals and have tons of after-school fun. For many children we serve, the Club is more than just after-school care, it is their second home. Here at BGCL, we want our young minds to thrive academically, socially and emotionally. You can help us with that by volunteering, registering a kid or teen or even sponsoring a child or family to attend a Club this school year. It costs $6,700 to serve just one child with the high-quality programs and services we offer. We need supporters like you to continue to help ensure that kids get every chance to have a successful school year inside and outside of the classroom.
