Boys & Girls Clubs of Southeastern North Carolina Inc

In 2025, Boys & Girls Clubs of Southeastern North Carolina served more than 3,182 youth in grades K12 across Brunswick, Duplin, Pender, New Hanover, and Onslow Counties. Through high-quality out-of-school programming, we provided safe, supportive environments where young people could learn, grow, and thrive while also receiving hot meals and nutritious snacks that supported their overall well-being.The youth we serve reflect the significant needs within our communities: 70% qualified for free or reduced-price lunch, 53% came from single-parent households, 20% were from military families, and 70% identified as racial or ethnic minorities. These realities reinforce the importance of providing accessible, affordable programs that help youth succeed academically, socially, and emotionally.Our mission is to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, and responsible citizens. We are committed to helping every Club member graduate from high school on time with a plan, pursue post-secondary education or career pathways, prove strong character and leadership, and live a healthy lifestyle.Through evidence-based programming in education, leadership development, health and wellness, the arts, sports and recreation, and innovative STEM initiatives such as our Spark Lab through SparkNC, youth gain the academic support, mentorship, life skills, and career exposure needed to succeed in a rapidly changing world. Programs introducing students to cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, software development, and engineering offer hands-on learning opportunities that inspire future-ready skills and open doors to high-impact careers.Boys & Girls Clubs of Southeastern North Carolina continue to create life-changing opportunities for thousands of youth each year by providing hope, stability, mentorship, and pathways to lifelong success.Boys & Girls Clubs of Southeastern North Carolina is a nonprofit organization exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
