About
The Boys & Girls Clubs of Grand Rapids (BGCGR) has been open for more than 85 years in the Grand Rapids area. Three clubs currently operate in three locations and BGCGR also owns Camp O'Malley. We are a drop-in after-school program that provides a safe space for nearly 1,300 youth to go every year.
Our mission is to enable all young people to reach their full potential as responsible citizens through education, recreation, and positive community experiences in partnership with the Grand Rapids Police Department.
Our vision is to provide a world-class Camp and Club Experience that assures success is within reach of every young person who enters our doors, with all members on track to graduate from high school with a plan for the future, demonstrating good character and citizenship, and living a healthy lifestyle.
Imagine What They’ll Become- We believe that every kid has an abundance of potential waiting to be nurtured and developed. We understand how important it is to give them the right kind of direction, support, love, and someone to look up to. With our presence in four spots around the community, we are all about making sure these crucial things are there for every child we work with.
