All of us at Boys & Girls Clubs of San Francisco (BGCSF) are so excited to open the doors to our new Clubhouse in Sunnydale as our members return to the classroom this school-year!
Excitement is building among Club members and staff as hundreds of young people will have a state-of-the-art space to actively and passionately pursue and realize their dreams.
BGCSF is proud to have been a critical partner in the collaboration with Mercy Housing, Related Builders, Wu Yee Children’s Services, and the City of San Francisco. The result is a Hub that seamlessly integrates youth and family services with newly constructed affordable housing, which together builds an ecosystem of supportive services that will help the community and its residents thrive.
We have made incredible progress on the new Clubhouse over the past 18 months, to check out the full photo journey, check out our Flickr Album.
A year ago, I was a high school senior navigating my final year at Lowell High School and balancing my commitment to soccer and school leadership activities. That’s when I was nominated to participate in Boys & Girls Clubs of San Francisco’s Youth of the Year program as the finalist from Mission Clubhouse.
Calling all teens! Through our Leaders-In-Training Program, teens become “ready for life” through unique projects, coaching, career exploration and on-the-job training. We welcome all teens in grades 9-12 who want to be part of a welcoming and inclusive environment and develop their leadership skills!
I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to our families, donors, staff, and volunteers. This time of year highlights the power of generosity and our shared commitment to helping young people thrive.
