About Us :
In a world that seems threatening and devoid of promise for many of America's children, the Boys & Girls Club of the Pikes Peak Region provides a tangible measure of hope. The Club offers young people what they need and want most: adults who respect and listen to them; a safe environment where they can have fun and be themselves; and interesting, constructive activities that channel youthful energy into challenging pursuits. All Boys & Girls Club programs are based on a youth development strategy that builds self-confidence and self-esteem and fosters a sense of belonging, competence, usefulness and influence.

For 118 years, the Boys & Girls Club of the Pikes Peak Region has been in the forefront of youth development, working with young people from disadvantaged economic, social and family circumstances. The Boys & Girls Club of the Pikes Peak Region has actively sought to enrich the lives of girls and boys whom other youth agencies fail to reach. The Boys & Girls Club of the Pikes Peak Region is dedicated to ensuring that our community's disadvantaged youngsters have greater access to quality programs and services that will enhance their lives and shape their futures.

The Boys & Girls Club of the Pikes Peak Region is part of a nationwide affiliation of local, autonomous organizations that work to help young people of all backgrounds develop the qualities they need to become responsible citizens and leaders. We offer daily access to a broad range of programs in five Core Program Areas:

Education and Career Development
Character and Leadership Development
Health and Life Skills
The Arts
Sports, Fitness and Recreation

Today, more than 8,000 boys and girls are taking advantage of the programs, activities and services provided by the Boys & Girls Club of the Pikes Peak Region. They benefit from trained, caring, professional staff and volunteers who help young people take control of their lives, envision productive futures, and achieve their goals.

The Boys & Girls Club of the Pikes Peak Region has been serving the community for 118- year. Our organization is also the oldest Club west of the Mississippi River and the eighth oldest Club of more than 3,300 worldwide. Our organization has devoted itself to providing the youth of the Pikes Peak Region with a safe place to learn and grow.
