Our Mission
To inspire & enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, responsible, and caring citizens.
Our Vision
For every young person who walks through our doors to be inspired, celebrated for their efforts, and empowered to shape their own future.
Our Values
Accountability
We hold ourselves and each other to the highest standards—showing up with integrity, owning our actions, and following through on our commitments. Accountability ensures we deliver on our mission for every young person who walks through our Blue Doors.
Fun
Joy is essential to learning and growing. We make space for laughter, creativity, and play so that kids, teens, and staff look forward to every day at the Club.
Respect
We treat each person with dignity, empathy, and understanding. By honoring differences and listening with care, we build stronger relationships and a healthier community.
Belonging
Every child, teen, family, and staff member deserves to feel seen, welcomed, and valued. We create spaces where all people can show up as they are and know they matter.
Innovation
We embrace new ideas, creative thinking, and bold solutions. Innovation drives us forward as we build programs that meet the evolving needs of today’s youth and tomorrow’s leaders.
Safety
The physical, emotional, and psychological safety of our members and staff comes first—always. We intentionally create environments where youth can learn, grow, and thrive without fear.
Trust
Trust is the foundation of everything we do. We build it through consistency, transparency, and genuine connection so staff and families feel confident in our care and youth feel supported every step of the way.
For 30 years, Boys & Girls Club of Benton County has been opening doors of opportunity and preparing young people for a great future. We see possibility in every young person and are committed to being a voice for all youth in Benton County.
All Youth are Welcome
Here in Benton County we have been serving youth in the community since 1991. We serve youth, ages 6-18, with a wide range of needs and interests. Understanding that we all grow and learn at different paces, our programs respond to the diverse needs across our community. We are continually adapting our offerings and services to best match the evolving needs of youth throughout our community.
