THE POSITIVE PLACE WHERE ALL YOUTH ARE SAFE AND VALUED

What I Do

At the Boys and Girls Club Kilgore Unit, our commitment to the well-being and development of children and youth knows no bounds. We are dedicated to impacting their lives, and we invite you to join us in this mission. We can create a brighter future for our community’s youngest members. Thank you for supporting us in our efforts to empower the next generation.

Strengthen

We are committed to building strong and resilient young individuals who are prepared to face life’s challenges with confidence. Our various programs and activities instill essential life skills, leadership qualities, and character development. We believe that strong character is the foundation of success and strive to nurture it in every child we serve.

Educate

Education is a cornerstone of our mission. We offer a wide range of educational programs and resources that support academic achievement and foster a love of learning. From tutoring and homework assistance to STEM initiatives and arts programs, we aim to inspire curiosity and knowledge in our young participants.

Consult

We understand that parents and guardians play a vital role in a child’s development. That’s why we offer consultation services to families, providing guidance on various parenting and child development aspects. We believe a collaborative approach between our organization and parents can help create a more supportive and enriching environment for our youth.

Find & Fund

We believe in unlocking the potential within every child. To do this, we actively seek out talented and passionate youth from all backgrounds and walks of life. We identify their unique abilities and provide them with the necessary financial support to pursue their passions, whether it’s through scholarships, grants, or other resources. 

We Build Networks

Our organization recognizes the power of connections. We create a supportive and inclusive community where children and youth can build lasting relationships with peers, mentors, and caring adults. Through our extensive network of volunteers, partners, and alumni, we provide young individuals with valuable social and professional connections that will serve them throughout their lives.
