The only youth service organization in Santa Cruz County to enable all young people to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens.
Afterschool programs should make room for joy, too!
Beyond homework help and structured activities, kids also need time to run around, play outside, laugh with friends, and enjoy the simple parts of childhood after a long school day.
#GreatFuturesStartHere#YouthDevelopment
Through Power Hour at Boys & Girls Clubs of Santa Cruz County, Club members have access to homework help, academic support, and caring staff ready to help them succeed.
Your donations help make programs like this possible for local youth every single day. https://t.co/9l9XHbevQp
Did you know our clubs offer supervised โwalking busesโ to help get kids safely from school to the Club? Our staff help walk students from school to the Club, making sure they arrive safely and are welcomed by familiar faces ready to support them. ๐
At our clubs, kids get the chance to learn hands-on life skills while creating meaningful connections with one another every day. Whether itโs trying something new in the kitchen or learning from an older mentor and friend, these moments help make Club feel like home.
At our Clubs, mentorship looks like showing up, leading by example, and helping kids build confidence one step at a time. From the field to the classroom, these connections help shape stronger futures. ๐ช๐

Behind every smile is a story and families who trust us to be part of it. Weโre a space where young people feel safe, supported, and excited to grow. Because when kids thrive, families do too. Help us continue showing up for local families. ๐
Every worksheet finished. Every question answered. Every โI get it nowโ moment, it all starts with support. Our Power Hour homework program gives kids the tools and confidence to succeed in school and beyond. Join us in making a difference: https://t.co/9l9XHbevQp
Spring break looks different for every family, but for many in our community, it doesnโt come with time off, extra help, or safe places for kids to go during the day. Weโre here to fill that gap!
Creative outlets help youth build confidence, explore their ideas, and discover what makes them unique. Whether itโs picking up an instrument, painting, or simply trying something new, the arts give kids space to grow, create, and be heard.
For many of the youth who come through our doors each day, the Club is also a place where they can count on a healthy meal or snack. Making sure kids have something nutritious to eat is an important part of supporting their growth, focus, and overall well-being. ๐
March is here, which means spring break is around the corner and summer will be here before we know it. If your child is ready to run, jump, play, learn, and grow in a space that feels safe and full of possibility, weโre already gearing up at our clubs.
