About the Boys & Girls Clubs
The Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Cincinnati believes every young person has the capability and potential to succeed, to achieve greatness and to soar. We believe Boys & Girls Clubs empower young people, provide a nurturing environment and are a fun place for kids to be.
Celebrating 72 years! Since 1939, the vision of the Boys & Girls Clubs has grown and changed with the needs of our children and so will the dynamics of our programs and services. Through our 11 clubs, 12,000 youth in Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky are provided a safe and positive place to learn and grow.
Boys & Girls Clubs provide a positive, safe place for children ages 6-18 to spend their non-school hours surrounded by caring adults and engaged in enriching, age appropriate youth development activities. Boys & Girls Clubs get kids off the streets during the most dangerous time of the day, between 3 and 8 p.m., according to the U.S. Department of Justice. Club Members have access to an array of programs including: tutoring, homework assistance, educational activities, daily physical activity, nutrition education, service learning, community engagement, mentoring and other leadership groups. Annual membership is FREE and includes a daily, hot and nutritious meal.
