Starts Right Here.

For $10 a day, you can sponsor hope for a young person in Cumberland County.

Hello, friend of the Club!

The photo above is from this summer. Our members piled onto a bus, spent the day at the shore, and came home sunburned, sandy and absolutely thrilled. For a lot of them, it was their first trip to the beach. We wish you could have heard the noise on that bus.

Now the backpacks come back out, and a brand new school year begins. Our doors open again the moment that last bell rings, and we would love for you to be part of what happens next.

Because what happens after school is not just supervision. It is where young people find their footing.

What your gift puts in their hands

Five things that happen because you gave.

An hour of homework help, every single day

Our Power Hour program pairs members ages 6 to 18 with staff and tutors who sit beside them until the work is done and it finally clicks.

A hot meal and a snack

For some of our members, it is the most reliable dinner of their week. Nobody has to ask for it, and nobody is singled out for taking it.

Programs that build the whole young person

SMART Moves and Positive Action for healthy choices. SMART Girls and Passport to Manhood for confidence. Torch Club and Keystone for the ones ready to lead.

A real path after graduation

CareerLaunch and Diplomas to Degrees walk our teens through résumés, college applications and first interviews, often as the first in their family to try.

Adults who know their name and cheer the loudest

This is the one we are proudest of. Every year our Youth of the Year stands up and tells a room full of people who believed in them first. It is almost always someone on our staff.

All of it, for

$10 a day

That is what it costs us to welcome one young person for one day at the Club. Across a full school year, $1,800 sponsors one member from start to finish.

Pick your piece of the year

Whatever you choose, you are giving a young person somewhere good to go.

$10 a day

One young person walks in, gets help with homework, eats a hot meal, and is genuinely glad to be there.

$50 a week

Five afternoons in a row. Long enough for a young person to start looking forward to it.

$180 a month

Enough time for grades to climb, for a shy member to find their people, and for a mentor to really know them.

★ Full Sponsorship

$1,800 a year

You sponsor one young person for the whole school year, from the first week of September through the last day in June. Every program, every meal, every person in their corner.

Our School-Year Goal

$100,000

That is a full year sponsored for 55 young people, and we would love to get there with you.

Every gift goes straight to the school year ahead.

We have been doing this in Cumberland County for more than twenty years, across five Club sites in Vineland and Bridgeton. In that time we have learned something simple: young people rise to meet the people who believe in them.

Sponsoring hope is really just that. Being one of the people in their corner this year. We would be so glad to have you there.

With gratitude,

Boys & Girls Clubs of Cumberland County

Great Futures Start Here.
