Support Boys & Girls Club Kids With a Donation Today!

We had an outstanding year at the Boys & Girls Club of Troy, as we were able to provide tremendous programming for our nearly 700 members during the school year and our 10-week summer program.

Whether it was hitting the books during Power Hour, learning the value of a buck in Money Matters, boosting physical fitness and sportsmanship in a football league, or making lifelong memories at our summer carnival - the Club is working harder than ever to maintain its mission of providing quality educational, recreational and mentoring programs to help young people develop into positive, self-reliant, responsible, contributing members of our community.

Naturally, the programs we offer require resources, and the generosity of our Club families, friends and community partners allows us to sustain our programs and fully commit to working towards our mission.  We also believe it is important to keep our annual membership fee at just $60 despite operational costs which can reach 10 times that amount per child.

As the holiday season approaches, we ask that you consider helping us make a difference in the lives of our youth by contributing to the Boys & Girls Club of Troy.  Your tax-deductible donation will undoubtedly make a positive impact on our Club.  Find out how you can make a simple online donation at bgctroy.org.
