At the Club, we keep our kids safe, provide them with resources and space to accomplish their homework, let them play, and instill values focused on leadership, character and friendship. Club kids enjoy nutritious, hot meals and healthy snacks. Nearly 95% of BGCAZ juniors and seniors expect to graduate from high school, surpassing the State average.
Our proven programs are delivered by trained, caring Youth Development Professionals in a safe environment that encourages kids to explore their interests, conquer their fears, make new friends and follow their dreams!
Starting this summer, we are adopting a Safe Passage Policy to check members in and out of the Clubs. This also helps parents ensure they can pick up their kids safely, especially our youngest members. Learn more.
