The United Boys & Girls Clubs of Santa Barbara County(UBGC) is a non-profit organization that provides a safe, positive, and enriching environment for youth between the ages of 5-18. Currently, we have five main Clubs, 4 satellite school-based afterschool educational operations, and a 94-acre residential camp. UBGC offers programming that enables young people to learn, grow and thrive for only $40 a year and there is no charge for families unable to pay. Our programs engage students to interact with peers, build social skills, get the homework help they need, and participate in physical activity. We provide access that in turn creates ladders of opportunities that become the catalyst for change.
