Boys & Girls Clubs of Southwest Washington provide a positive environment, quality programs and lifelong learning skills for all school age youth with special concern for those coming from disadvantaged circumstances. Our purpose is to inspire and enable young people to realize their full potential as productive, responsible and caring citizens. Through fun and diverse activities our Clubs build character, teach kids how to respect themselves and others and offer valuable educational programs that help improve school performance while developing a love of learning. True to our mission, the Club maintains low annual dues of $15 so all young people, especially those from disadvantaged circumstances, can afford to belong.
