Testimonials
My daughter is grateful to have gone to summer camp this year. Being able to be around kids her age helped pull her outside of a dark place. She needed the interaction with her friends after being home for so long.
I lost my dad was I was in 7th grade. And swimming was kind of like an outlet form me. Even if you are having a rough day…the coaches are always there for you. Whether you need advice or anyone to listen.
The Club is a home that not only houses me, but one that houses my development as a leader, an athlete, and more importantly, as a human being well equipped to make a difference in the world.
In Mrs. Cutri’s club, we all came together to form a community and despite everyone coming from different walks of life, we worked together to achieve a common goal.
My favorite part of the day is just putting smiles on everyone, especially the kids’ face and making them go home happy and forget about everything on the outside. All the conselors are like family, even if you are new, everyone loves and respects each other. And it’s just…like an excellent vibe.
Thanks to the Club, and the staff that work there I’ve had the opportunity to learn many helpful things to prepare me for my future. While school is beneficial for my education, learning about the college process, how to put together a resume for my first job, and learning crucial financial literacy skills I feel will have more of an impact on me.

The Wellness Center is such an asset to BGCNW. I’m so appreciative that the children have a space to safely explore their feelings. My son feels welcomed and cared for by Ms. Alana and her team and is always excited to tell me about the time he spends there. As a parent, and a therapist, I feel grateful for The Wellness Center for providing this resource for our kids. It’s one that many children don’t have access to, and that feels particularly needed at this moment in time.

I owe so much of who I am to the Boys and Girls Club. Receiving genuine care from counselors and trusted adults gave me confidence and self-assurance, all the while keeping me grounded. Perhaps more important (to young Marie), is that going to the club was so much fun. I cherish my childhood in large part due to the friends (who I still talk to) and the memories I made here.
