For many kids and teens, the American Dream is no longer within reach. But we can change this trajectory by providing educational and career opportunities, building character and teaching invaluable life skills.
Big futures require big support
Capital Campaigns
Boys & Girls Clubs of Topeka are embarking on two critical capital campaigns to support the future of our facilities and programs. Over the next five years, we will be revitalizing the Adams Club with essential upgrades, including a new roof, modern HVAC systems, and interior renovations to create a safe, welcoming space for youth. In addition, we are launching an exciting playground revitalization project to build a vibrant, interactive outdoor space where kids can play, explore, and grow. Your support for these campaigns will ensure that our Clubs continue to be a hub of learning, fun, and opportunity for generations to come. Together, we can make these improvements a reality and create lasting change for the youth in our community.
Our mission goes deep. More than just a helping hand, we’re affecting change in policy and providing a voice for all youth on the local, state, and national levels. With a reach of 4,300 Clubs strong, we have an incredible amount of experience to draw from in the youth development space and leverage what we know to better serve kids and teens during out-of-school time. For every dollar invested into a Club, the surrounding community gets almost $10 back in saved resources. That’s real, tangible impact that affects generations.
