In every community, boys and girls are left to find their own recreation and companionship in the streets. An increasing number of children are at home with no adult care or supervision. Young people need to know that someone cares about them.

Since 1992 the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Foothills have been the center of youth development in Monrovia. We are proud to serve all children ages 6-18. The Clubs provide programs such as tutoring, homework assistance, personal and cultural enrichment, organized team sports and after school bus pickup. Club programs and services promote and enhance the development of boys and girls by instilling a sense of competence, usefulness, belonging and influence. We are grateful to the citizens of Monrovia and to the surrounding foothill communities who have made this service to our children possible.

Boys & Girls Clubs are a safe place to learn and grow -- all while having fun. It is truly The Positive Place For Kids.

The mission of Boys & Girls Club of the Foothills (BGCF) is to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, and responsible citizens.

With the infrastructure and proven programming of Boys & Girls Clubs of America behind us, we offer daily access to a broad range of programs in five areas:

Character and Leadership Development
Education and Career Development
Health and Life Skills
Sports, Fitness and Recreation
The Arts
Our programs are designed to help youth of all backgrounds develop the qualities they need to overcome obstacles, become responsible citizens, and emerge as leaders.
