ABOUT BGCRR
Great Futures Start HERE. We are here for YOU.
Each year, the Fredericksburg BGC has more than 300 members who are at risk and/or in need of quality academic and/or social support who take advantage of the programs, activities and services that we provide. On average, we serve about 105 K-12 students in our After Care and Power Hour (homework support), daily. We strive to offer a highly enriching club experience that assures success is within reach of every young person who comes through our doors. We work hard to develop members of good character and citizenship, who will graduate on time from high school with a feasible plan for the future, and go on to live a healthy lifestyle.
We strive to consistently provide quality activities that will increase attendance, program participation and member retention. To make sure that all of our members have great futures, the Boys & Girls Club Movement has adopted the Formula for Impact, a research-based theory of change that describes how individual Clubs and the Movement as a whole can increase our impact – exponentially – on the young people of America. BGCA worked with the nationally recognized Search Institute to review relevant research and study highly effective Clubs. Here are some facts about our Fredericksburg branch:
