History
Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Los Angeles (BGCMLA) was founded in December 2015 as a scalable and sustainable solution to reversing the opportunity crises facing some of the most vulnerable children in the neediest neighborhoods of Los Angeles. We are a collective made up of individual clubs including Bell Gardens Clubhouse, Watts-Willowbrook Clubhouse, Challengers Clubhouse, and Jordan Downs Clubhouse. Our mission is to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens. We believe in empowering youth to explore a future with endless possibilities by offering creative programming such as new approaches to science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) created in collaboration with our community partners. BGCMLA is a safe, stable place that ensures physical and emotional safety while discouraging crime in our local communities. See how we're deepening our impact on Metro LA youth & families!
