Volunteer
Working with youth today means a brighter future for everyone.
When you volunteer at a Boys & Girls Club, you can make a difference in the lives of youth and give back to your community. Within the first few minutes of walking into a Club, you know you’re in a special place. Filled with the sounds and energy of spirited children and friendly, caring professionals, the Club is a fun and hopeful environment. Whether you help with homework, teach an art project, rock babies or help with a larger team project, you’ll have the opportunity to build healthy relationships with young people eager for adult guidance, and have a positive impact on their lives. In turn, you will find that spending time with these young people has a positive impact on you as well.
The Boys & Girls Club offers a variety of ways to get involved and welcomes short and long-term volunteers. Read more about some of the ways our volunteers are making an impact below.

Volunteer Spotlight - Sky
"The thing I enjoy most about volunteering with The Boys and Girls Clubs is the ability to improve a child's day. The kids I have worked with so far have been so fun to interact with and spending time with them has bettered me and my ability to work with children. In this reciprocal relationship, I am able to learn a great deal while helping the kids learn as well. The kids always want to know when I will return. Knowing that I improved their day is what I enjoy most and is what makes me excited to come back."
