Mission Statement
Boys & Girls Clubs of South Alabama, Inc. provides youth development services to the youth of Mobile County, Alabama.
About This Cause
Boys and Girls Clubs of South Alabama, Inc. has provided youth development programs to children ages 6 to 18 since 1957. Our seven full-time Boys & Girls Clubs are each open over 1,200 hours each year. We are a safe haven for kids, open daily after school and five days each week during the summer. Boys and Girls Clubs of South Alabama, Inc. has adopted the “Formula for Impact,” a national program initiative of the Boys and Girls Clubs of America. Through this initiative, our goal is to provide an outcome-driven Club experience consisting of five key elements for positive youth development: 1) A safe, positive environment: The Club is a safe haven where members feel physically and emotionally secure at all times. 2) Fun: The Club facility, staff and program offerings create a welcoming, positive environment that allows members to engage in play, enjoy their play time and be excited and eager to come to the Club. 3) Supportive relationships: The Club ensures that every young person feels connected to one or more adults and has friendships with peers. 4) Opportunities and expectations: Club staff and programs consistently communicate the expectation that every child has the potential to excel, be productive and succeed at the Club and in life. 5) Recognition: The Club takes every opportunity to recognize and validate Club members’ achievements and accomplishments. Combined with high-yield activities, evidence-based programs and regular attendance, the five key elements result in the following priority outcomes: Academic Success: Members graduate from high school ready for college, trade school, the military or employment. Good Character and Citizenship: Be an engaged citizen involved in the community, register to vote and model strong character. Healthy Lifestyles: Adopt a healthy diet, practice healthy lifestyle choices and make a lifelong commitment to fitness.
