Profile

The Boys & Girls Club of Manhattan provides high-quality programming in the areas of academic success, good character & citizenship, and healthy lifestyles at 12 sites across Manhattan and Wamego. 

With the help of the Club, families have a safe, fun, and educational place for their children before and after school, in-service days, and during spring and summer school breaks.  

The cost of services provided by the Boys & Girls Club are reduced to ensure affordability for all families. 

By the Numbers:

 - 1,300 youth served

 - 60,526 healthy snacks served

 - 44% come from free and reduced 

Annual membership (calendar year) $30. This membership fee is waived for children receiving State health insurance and all active and reserve military members. 

The cost to the Club is $1,260 per school year per child.

We charge families just $100/ semester or $200 for the school year. For qualifying families, the Club can provide a 50-100% scholarship for programs. 

The Club works to make up the difference in its actual cost through fundraising events, grants, individual and corporate giving, and third-party events such as Grow Green Match Day.  

Every $1 invested in the Boys & Girls Club returns $9.60 in current and future earnings/cost savings to our community. 

Will you help us to make a difference in the youth of our Community?
