Boys & Girls Clubs of Bellevue
Our mission is to inspire and enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential and productive, caring, responsible citizens. We offer life-saving programs to youth in our community with a focus on reaching those who need us most. We provide prevention focused after-school programs for youth ages 2 1/2 - 19, patterned after nationally designed Boys & Girls Clubs of America programs that fall under the 3 program pillars of Academic Success, Good Character and Citizenship and Healthy Life styles. A research-based "youth development strategy" is integrated into all programming and implemented by trained professional staff, serving as positive role models. We are unique in that we have been operating a preschool program for 35 years, helping youth from the ages of 2 1/2 - 5 prepare for kindergarten. The Club also offers tutoring and homework help, computer classes, leadership groups, health and fitness activities, job search assistance, science education, fine arts, an award winning music program, and conflict resolution skills development.
