SUPPORT BOYS & GIRLS CLUBS OF SOUTH CENTRAL TENNESSEE

EVERY CHILD DESERVES A GREAT FUTURE. WITH YOUR HELP, WE MAKE THAT POSSIBLE.

For more than 25 years, Boys & Girls Clubs of South Central Tennessee has been more than an after-school program—we’ve been a lifeline for thousands of kids across Maury and Giles Counties. Every day, we welcome over 1,500 youth ages 5–18 into our Clubs, offering them a safe place to learn, grow, and discover their potential.

At BGCSCTN, every child matters—no exceptions. Whether they need help with homework, a healthy meal, a mentor who believes in them, or a space to just be a kid, we are here. Through 14 Club sites, we deliver high-impact programs focused on:

  • Academic success
  • Career exploration & leadership development
  • Health & wellness
  • Social-emotional support & mentorship

But what truly sets us apart is our commitment to equity and access. While it costs about $53 per week to support one child, no family is ever turned away due to inability to pay. Over half of our members receive scholarships or financial assistance, thanks to generous donors like you.

When you give, you do more than donate—you transform lives. You help us remove financial barriers, reach more children, and prepare the next generation to lead with confidence and compassion.

Explore the many ways you can give, and be part of something bigger.
