The Scope of the Movement:
Helping Kids BE GREAT! In 2008, Boys & Girls Clubs achieved great things by making a positive impact in communities around the world. Recognizing the challenges young people face, we launched a five-year strategic plan that focuses on three key outcomes for our youth: academic success, healthy lifestyles, and good character and citizenship. The theme, BE GREAT, emphasizes youth advocacy and demonstrates how Clubs help kids be their best. We are so grateful for the support of our donors, volunteers, parents and friends and hope each takes pride in our achievements. The Chronicle of Philanthropy ranked BGCA as No. 17 among all non-profit organizations, while placing BGCA in the No. 1 position among youth organizations for the 16th consecutive year. Forbes, SmartMoney, Newsweek and U.S. News & World Report have all ranked BGCA among the top charitable organizations in America based on cost-effective use of donor dollars. WORTH magazine has ranked BGCA as one of America's top one hundred charities, based on financial efficiency, strength of reputation, and program effectiveness. About Our Membership
