Creating great futures for kids & youth in our community since 1996.
It all started when two local businessmen reflected on the great memories they had growing up in a Boys & Girls Club in the Seattle area. Believing that youth in the Tri-Cities deserved the same opportunities, they rallied a group of dedicated community leaders to form a board of directors and bring the Club Experience to our region. Now, almost 30 years later, Boys & Girls Clubs of Benton and Franklin Counties operates 29 Club sites and serves over 4,000 kids and teens each year.
