Volunteering
Boys & Girls Club is a nonprofit, independent youth development organization that relies on the kindness of volunteers to successfully offer the best youth programming in Nebraska. The time and effort contributed by volunteers is invaluable and appreciated by BGC’s staff, members and families. We will work with you and your employees to identify the type of volunteer experience you desire and to ensure that you receive the appropriate training.
We're closing opportunity gaps.
Many of the youth we serve don’t receive the same opportunities as others. These gaps are due to circumstances out of their control, including a lack of supportive adult relationships, finances, health care access, or food distribution. By increasing access and opportunities for all youth, we empower them to reach their full potential.
We offer cutting-edge curriculum.
Boys & Girls Club offers research- and evidence-based curriculum like STEM programming and a Workforce Development Initiative that help kids harness their power to create Great Futures.
Employers reap rewards.
A study by CONE Communications shows that employers who partner with nonprofit organizations see the following benefits:
-
Moral builder for your company
-
Builds brand awareness
-
More engaged workforce
-
Increased community engagement
-
