Boys and Girls Club of Philadelphia

The organization operates 18 clubs and provides programs in some of the most deprived & dangerous neighborhoods in the city of Philadelphia, where drug trafficking and violence are part of the everyday landscape. We have served the Philadelphia community since 1887 and three of our clubs were part of the founding of Boys & Girls Club of america more than 100 years ago. Eight of our sites are in our own facilities, two are housed in elementary schools, six are in public housing locations, one facility is owned by fairmont park, and another is leased from Philadelphia. All these facilities served in excess of 9,000 children during the year.
