The Boys & Girls Club of the Wausau Area is dedicated to ensuring that all kids, have access to quality programs and services that will enhance their daily lives and shape positive futures. At the Club, kids and teens have the right to be themselves, feel a sense of belonging and have access to opportunities that support their great futures. The Club empowers kids and teens to overcome obstacles through daily access to programs and activities to ensure members achieve Academic Success, Good Character & Citizenship and Healthy Lifestyles. The Club also provides members with mentoring opportunities to connect them to the Club and their community. 

 

The Club creates opportunities for young people to learn, grow, and succeed while teaching the importance of character, community, education, and diversity during the critical out-of-school hours.
