Since 1936, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Mississippi has been the leading youth development organization in the region. Annually, we serve about 3,200 youth who spend nearly 750,000 hours at our 6 Metro-area clubs and our camp near Hazlehurst. (For our locations, click HERE.)

We inspire and enable young people to become successful, responsible citizens. Thousands of our alumni confirm the fact that we change the lives of at-risk youth.

Many of our kids come from disadvantaged circumstances. If not for their Boys & Girls Club, many would be left unsupervised, often in neighborhoods where drug use and violence are constant threats.

There are many excellent organizations that provide services to youth. However, the core characteristics upon which Boys & Girls Clubs are based set us apart from other youth-serving organizations. The Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Mississippi is the only organization that is 100% youth-focused and facility-based, providing youth a “Club” of their own, and staffed with full time youth development professionals.

The Clubs are open to all kids, do not require proof of good character, are affordable to any child, and provide varied and diversified programs that recognize and respond to the collective and individual needs of youth.

Today, thousands of boys and girls, at-risk and in need, are taking advantage of the programs, activities, and services provided by the Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Mississippi. They benefit from trained, caring, professional staff and volunteers who help young people take control of their lives, envision productive futures and reach their goals.
