The world is complicated.
helping kids is simple.
At Boys & Girls Clubs, we don't just do one thing;
we do whatever it takes to build great futures for America's young people.
At some point in our lives, we have all caught a break. Someone did something kind for us, went out of their way for us, gave us an opportunity. That's what we do here at the Boys & Girls Clubs: provide opportunities. BGCMV is committed to doing whatever it takes to provide the youth and teens we serve with the tools they need to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens; and this is something we cannot do alone.
From our passionate staff to our dedicated Board of Directors to our generous donors and volunteers, our mission is made possible by the people who offer their time, their talent, and their treasure to care for our Club Kids. The contributions of our community are the foundation on which all of our success is built, and we are always looking for more people to join us in this work. You’re invited to volunteer to come spend time with the kids, but if you’re short on time, we welcome your financial contribution. Our suggested giving levels recur automatically monthly, and take less than a minute to set up HERE. For the cost of eating out one meal each month, you can help create more opportunities for young people in your community! Today's kids are tomorrow's everything. Help us give children in the Quad Cities the opportunity for a Great Future. Click here to become a supporter!
what we do
There is no silver bullet to success.
It takes an army of people, a safe environment, high-quality programs, and unique experiences to level the playing field for all kids.
And this is what we do at Boys & Girls Clubs.
Boys & Girls Clubs is a comprehensive youth development program that provides after school and summer programming for all youth ages 6-18. Our organization serves over 700 youth per year at two locations in Moline, Illinois and Davenport, Iowa. Boys & Girls Clubs prepares members for the 21st century workforce, gives them a safe place to go after school with positive adult mentors, gives a voice to the next generation, and gives the tools needed to fight the cycle of inequity.
