The Boys & Girls Clubs Of Greater St. Louis (BGCSTL) is featured in the 2020 edition of Sophisticated Giving.

Who We Are: For more than 50 years, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater St. Louis (BGCSTL), a leading youth service provider in the St. Louis region, has provided after school, ​summer, ​teen and sports programs for youth ages 6-18. The Club is a chartered member of the Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BGCA), which has 4,000 chartered locations that serve nearly 4 million youth annually.

What We Do: BGCSTL serves St. Louis youth at ten locations (Adams Park Club, Hazelwood Elementary School Club, Herbert Hoover Club, Lee Hamilton Elementary School Club, O’Fallon Park Club, Riverview Gardens Club, Hazelwood Southeast Middle School Club and the Teen Center of Excellence), providing a safe place for youth to learn and grow. We also operate dropout prevention programs within two High Schools (Normandy and Roosevelt High School); as well as the Mentor St. Louis and St. Louis Internship programs.

Why We Are Important: Nationally recognized programs led by professional staff are targeted to help youth succeed in school, stay healthy, pursue interests in arts and sports, and explore career choices. It is our hope that every kid who comes through our doors, graduates from high school with a plan for their future! Membership fees are kept low to allow any child the opportunity to join and includes access to after school homework assistance, tutoring, college and career planning, recreational activities, access to transportation, free dental and vision care as well as healthy meals in a safe, supportive learning environment.

How We Impact The Community: The mission of BGCSTL is to inspire and enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, responsible and caring citizens.

How You Can Help: BGCSTL actively looks for those interested in volunteering, mentoring, enrolling their children, donating or supporting an event. Our Mentor St. Louis (MSL) program empowers St. Louis elementary school students and Club members to succeed in school through structured, positive mentoring relationships with caring adult volunteers. Volunteering is a great way for the community, individuals and companies to get involved; individuals can tutor, assist with homework, coach an athletic team, serve at events or simply read to a child or group of children.
