Become a Club Champion by giving TODAY!

Your investment will give boys and girls in the Ocoee Region the opportunities they need to achieve Great Futures! How? Read on …

Boys & Girls Clubs of the Ocoee Region—with seventeen different Clubs throughout six counties—has become a vital organization for local families and the kids who need us most.

Clubs offer hard-working parents and their children safe, fun, and encouraging places for young people to go after school and during the extended days of summer, where they have opportunities to: build caring, supportive, healthy relationships; learn, grow, and develop the skills and talents they need to be productive citizens; and discover how to take responsibility for their own behaviors and goals.

We believe this formula is truly where great futures start!

“It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken adults.”

American abolitionist and statesman, Frederick Douglass

One thing we know for certain is that kids vote with their feet. If the place we want them to come to isn’t a place they like, they simply won’t come back. With that thought as a guiding principle, we are relentless in pursuing the kinds of space and programming improvements that we think will continue to make us an attractive option for kids, teens, and parents. Of course, to make this happen requires buildings, staff, and a wide range of costly resources. But despite the cost of those things, no child is ever turned away, regardless of their financial situation. That’s where your support comes in.

Currently, our membership numbers are at an all-time high, yet nearly 45% of parents are unable to pay the low weekly fees. By becoming a Club Champion today, you are helping provide these essential services that will build strong children and transform our communities. In fact, research suggests that every dollar invested in Boys & Girls Clubs returns $9.60 in economic benefits to individuals and communities.
