The Cause: Boys and Girls Clubs of the Sandhills
The Cause - The Boys and Girls Clubs of the Sandhills
In every community, boys and girls are left to find their own recreation and companionship in the streets. An increasing number of children are at home with no adult care or supervision. Young people need to know that someone cares about them.
Boys & Girls Clubs offer that and more. Club programs and services promote and enhance the development of boys and girls by instilling a sense of competence, usefulness, belonging and influence. Boys & Girls Clubs are a safe place to learn and grow – all while having fun. They are truly The Positive Place for Kids.

- 120 kids per day – Aberdeen
- 22, 000 meals served in 2009

From games and athletics to drug prevention workshops, Boys & Girls Clubs of the Sandhills offers young people a range of fun and productive activities. Clubs are open each day after school from 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. – when research has shown children to be most vulnerable to gangs, violence and other risky behaviors. In the summer, Clubs and special summer-only sites open their doors all day to young people with nowhere else to go.
A trained, caring staff implements proven youth development strategies and creates a stable, supportive environment for children and teens ages six to 18. Specially designed programs concentrate on developing job readiness, study skills, leadership, self-esteem, good health and social responsibility among Boys & Girls Club members.
- In 2009 & 2010, every $1 of corporate sponsorship resulted in a $2 donation to the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Sandhills.
The Reindeer Fun Run has donated $50,000 to the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Sandhills & is the Club’s single largest fundraiser.
