The Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield (the Club) is a youth development organization providing programs and services to the children and families of the South Shore. Our programs provide safe, fun, and educational enrichment programming. Our services include care for children any time they are out-of-school, vacation weeks and summer programs, youth athletics, teen and social recreational opportunities. Our Club serves children and teens ages 5 to 18 as well as offers adult classes, parenting support, and community service. The Club focuses our programming on the Boys and Girls Club of America’s (BGCA) five core areas: leadership, education, health, arts, and fitness.
Our mission is to enable and inspire all young people to realize their full potential as productive and responsible citizens, as well as become tomorrow’s capable leaders.
The Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield currently serves youth, ages 5-18 years old and serves as a second home to many children of working parents. The Club’s primary focus is to keep children safe and engaged. The after-school hours are the most vulnerable time for latch-key kids. Although the Club’s primary population is Marshfield residents, we are currently expanding our reach and offer resources to the greater South Shore community.
The Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield currently has 500 families as members of the club. Of these families, 40% are low to moderate-income, many of which do not have adequate child care. In addition, our inclusion program which services kids with special needs including social, learning disabilities, emotional, mental, and physically challenged, represent 55% of the children served.
