The Mission of the Union League Boys & Girls Clubs is to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, responsible, and caring citizens. We currently serve more than 15,000 enrolled members (Pre-Pandemic statistics) between the ages of 6 and 18 at 18 locations. Each day, more than 1,400 youth take part in programming focused on academic success, healthy lifestyles, and good character and citizenship. We help youth prepare to reach their full potential. Thanks to the generous support of our donors and our programming partners, the youth of the Union League Boys & Girls Clubs have the opportunity to succeed in life and to find their voices in the world.
