Boys & Girls Clubs of America

As an ADVOCATE: Support the cause…

Whatever it Takes to Build Great Futures.

Imagine a place where who you are, where you’re from or the circumstances that surround you don’t determine your access to experiences or opportunities. Through your support, Boys & Girls Clubs are making that vision a reality — in your community and communities around the world.

We never take a single approach to help kids succeed. It takes caring mentors, such as our trained Club staff. It takes a safe place, like our Clubs that are consistently there for the kids they serve. It takes innovative, quality programs designed to empower youth to excel in school and lead healthy, productive lives. We do whatever it takes to ensure all kids have a great future.

Be a DONOR: Show that you care…

• Monthly Giving: Provide year-round support to help more kids reach their potential.
• Start a Fundraiser: Creating an online fundraiser is an easy and effective way to raise money for Boys & Girls Clubs of America. Rally your community with a run or walk, raise funds in lieu of gifts or commemorate milestones to support Boys & Girls Clubs kids.
• Employer Matched Gifts: Through corporate gift matching, your employer can multiply your gift to BGCA, making it go further.
• Donate Stock: Do you own stock that’s increased in value since its purchase or have clients who do? If you or your clients have owned the stock for at least one year, there is a unique opportunity for philanthropy. When someone donates securities to Boys & Girls Clubs of America, they receive the same income tax savings (if they itemize) as if they wrote BGCA a check directly, but with the added benefit of eliminating capital gains tax on the transfer.
• Planned Giving: Consider including Boys & Girls Clubs of America in your estate planning. Your charitable gift will provide vital support for our organization as well as immediate or deferred tax benefits for you and your family. Every dollar invested in Boys & Girls Clubs returns $9.60 in economic benefits to individuals and society, so your contribution has the potential to influence the well-being of others far into the future.
  • Bequests: You may be looking for a way to make a significant gift to help further our mission. A bequest is a gift made through your will or trust. It is one of the most popular and flexible ways that you can support our cause.
  • IRA Rollover: An IRA rollover allows people age 70½ and older to reduce their taxable income by making a gift directly from their IRA.
• Heritage Club: What is the Heritage Club? The Heritage Club is an association of friends of Boys & Girls Clubs of America from all across the country. Like you, these people seek to ensure that the future needs of our nation’s youth are met by including Boys & Girls Clubs of America in their estate plans. This planning might include a will, charitable gift annuity, a trust arrangement, a real estate gift or a life insurance policy.
• Round Up Your Change for Kids: Boys & Girls Clubs of America has teamed up with Coin Up to allow donors to virtually “round up” their spare change from everyday bank card transactions, set a monthly limit and give to the charity of their choice.
• Corporate Partners: Thanks for your interest in Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BGCA). There are many reasons to partner with our organization, and we look forward to discussing opportunities with your company further. New corporate partnerships that help advance the work of our organization are always welcome. BGCA is interested in partnering with companies that have solid brand images and reputations. Whether new or established, any prospective partner must have a strong corporate mission and be an industry leader. Key factors for evaluating a potential partner include the partner’s ability to leverage its assets, raise awareness, make a corporate contribution and/or raise funds and engage its employees and leadership, locally and nationally.
• Donate Your Vehicle: Your vehicle donation helps us to give a chance for our kids in America to have a brighter future. Donate today. Pick up is free, and you will also get a tax deduction if you are an itemizing taxpayer.
