Mission

TO ENABLE ALL YOUNG PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO NEED US THE MOST, TO REACH THEIR FULL POTENTIAL AS PRODUCTIVE, CARING, RESPONSIBLE CITIZENS.

990 for the year ended September 30, 2025

Program accomplishments

  • BOYS & GIRLS CLUBS OF LEE COUNTY (BGCLC) IS COMMITTED TO PROVIDING A SAFE, SUPPORTIVE, AND INCLUSIVE ENVIRONMENT WHERE YOUNG PEOPLE CAN THRIVE DURING OUT-OF-SCHOOL TIME. OUR MISSION IS TO ENABLE ALL YOUNG PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO NEED US MOST, TO REACH THEIR FULL POTENTIAL AS PRODUCTIVE, CARING, AND RESPONSIBLE CITIZENS. EACH YEAR, ONE IN FIVE YOUTH LACKS ACCESS TO SAFE, SUPERVISED AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAMMING, LEAVING THEM VULNERABLE TO ACADEMIC DECLINE, SOCIAL ISOLATION, AND OTHER RISK FACTORS DURING CRITICAL OUT-OF-SCHOOL HOURS. IN ADDITION, THREE OUT OF FOUR YOUTH DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO HIGH-QUALITY SUMMER PROGRAMMING, CONTRIBUTING TO SIGNIFICANT SUMMER LEARNING LOSS AND WIDENING EDUCATIONAL DISPARITIES. TO ADDRESS THESE CHALLENGES, BGCLC DELIVERS RESEARCH-BASED, HIGH-QUALITY PROGRAMMING FOCUSED ON ACADEMIC SUCCESS, WORKFORCE READINESS, LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT, HEALTH AND WELLNESS, THE ARTS, AND SPORTS AND RECREATION. AS AN OUTCOME-DRIVEN ORGANIZATION, WE ARE DEDICATED TO ENSURING EVERY CHILD WHO ENTERS OUR CLUBS HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO SUCCEED ACADEMICALLY, DEVELOP STRONG CHARACTER AND CITIZENSHIP SKILLS, AND LEAD A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE. BGCLC CURRENTLY SERVES MORE THAN 1,400 YOUTH ANNUALLY ACROSS EIGHT CLUB LOCATIONS IN FORT MYERS, NORTH FORT MYERS, CAPE CORAL, LEHIGH ACRES, AND BONITA SPRINGS, FLORIDA. WE MAINTAIN AFFORDABLE ACCESS THROUGH NOMINAL MEMBERSHIP FEES AND SCHOLARSHIP ASSISTANCE TO ENSURE THAT NO CHILD IS TURNED AWAY DUE TO FINANCIAL HARDSHIP. IN 2022, BGCLC ACQUIRED A 14,500-SQUARE-FOOT FACILITY SITUATED ON A TWO- ACRE CAMPUS IN THE HEART OF FORT MYERS TO SERVE AS THE ORGANIZATION'S FLAGSHIP CLUB. RENOVATIONS BEGAN IN 2024, WITH PHASE I COMPLETED IN MAY 2025. THIS PHASE INCLUDED THE DEVELOPMENT OF A STATE-OF-THE-ART TECHNOLOGY HUB AND DEDICATED SPACES FOR TUTORING, STEM EDUCATION, AND VISUAL ARTS PROGRAMMING. PHASE II, SCHEDULED FOR COMPLETION BY THE END OF 2026, INCLUDES A 2,500-SQUARE-FOOT TEEN CENTER, CULINARY TRAINING KITCHEN, BASKETBALL COURT, AND SPORTS FIELD. TO SUPPORT THIS EXPANSION, BGCLC LAUNCHED A CAPITAL CAMPAIGN IN LATE 2023 AND HAS ALREADY SECURED APPROXIMATELY 85% OF ITS FUNDRAISING GOAL. BGCLC'S STRATEGIC PRIORITIES CENTER ON EXPANDING ACCESS TO HIGH-QUALITY YOUTH DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMMING AND STRENGTHENING LONG-TERM ORGANIZATIONAL SUSTAINABILITY. OUR EDUCATIONAL INITIATIVES ADDRESS CRITICAL ACHIEVEMENT GAPS IN LANGUAGE ARTS, MATHEMATICS, AND SCIENCE THROUGH TARGETED, HIGH- YIELD, PROJECT-BASED LEARNING EXPERIENCES. IN PARTNERSHIP WITH JAMES STEPHENS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, BGCLC OPERATES A FEDERALLY FUNDED 21ST CENTURY COMMUNITY LEARNING CENTER PROGRAM, WHICH HAS DEMONSTRATED SIGNIFICANT STUDENT LEARNING GAINS IN BOTH READING AND MATHEMATICS. A MAJOR FOCUS OF BGCLC'S GROWTH STRATEGY IS INCREASING TEEN ENGAGEMENT THROUGH SPECIALIZED PROGRAMMING IN WORKFORCE READINESS, CAREER EXPLORATION, LIFE SKILLS, FINANCIAL LITERACY, AND COLLEGE PREPARATION. WE BELIEVE INVESTING IN TEENS TODAY EQUIPS THEM WITH THE CONFIDENCE, SKILLS, AND SUPPORT NECESSARY FOR LIFELONG SUCCESS. BGCLC ALSO SERVES AS A VITAL COMMUNITY CONNECTOR BY BUILDING PARTNERSHIPS WITH LOCAL BUSINESSES, VOLUNTEERS, SCHOOLS, AND NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS TO BROADEN OUR COLLECTIVE IMPACT. THROUGH THESE COLLABORATIONS, WE ARE HELPING ADDRESS CRITICAL COMMUNITY CHALLENGES, INCLUDING EDUCATIONAL INEQUITIES, FOOD INSECURITY, AND WORKFORCE PREPAREDNESS. AS BGCLC CONTINUES TO GROW AND INNOVATE, THE ORGANIZATION REMAINS DEEPLY COMMITTED TO EMPOWERING THE NEXT GENERATION AND STRENGTHENING THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE.
