Our Impact

apple2The after-school hours are a critical time for youth – a time when many children in our communities are left to fend for themselves without positive adult supervision. Some don’t get a healthy, balanced meal, or any evening meal whatsoever. Others, who need help with homework or other challenges, have nowhere to turn. This can lead to violence and crime, drug and alcohol use, low graduation rates, bullying, and suicide.

Boys & Girls Clubs of the Northland is here to inspire, prepare, and create a solid foundation for our kids and our communities. We are dedicated to ensuring that every young person in our service area has a chance at a great future.
