Vision
With a
commitment to excellence, our professional staff and volunteer leadership
provide and support premier youth development services using innovative,
comprehensive programs and unique life experiences to maximize each individual's
potential, resulting in productive future citizens.
Values
To measure our success, the Boys & Girls Clubs of
Greater Scottsdale feels that the organization needs to exhibit the following
values:
- Courage
- Diversity
- Honesty
- Integrity
- Respect
- Responsibility
- Sportsmanship
- Trust
In addition, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Scottsdale believes these
values need to be evident with our volunteers and community partners.
 How
Can You Help?
Program and membership fees support less than 40
percent of the funds needed for the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Scottsdale to
provide services to more than 15,000 members. In order for the Club to continue
providing more than 100 quality programs, and to keep them affordable to all
families, additional support must come from concerned individuals, corporations
and foundations.
 A
Positive Place for Kids
The Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Scottsdale
serve girls and boys between the ages of 6 and 18, with an emphasis on outreach
to teens, gender inclusion and family involvement. We are committed to
developing self-esteem in our community's youth by instilling a sense of
belonging, leadership and participation in the community.
 A
Rich History
The Boys & Girls Club movement began in Hartford,
Connecticut, in 1860 when three women invited a group of boys into their home
for tea and cake to give them a positive alternative to the streets.
