The Boys & Girls Clubs of Edinburg RGV is the premier youth service organization in Edinburg and surrounding communities. Programs are driven by emerging trends, with an increase in community awareness of programming and values. The BGC Edinburg organization has a state-of-the-art facility with trained youth development professionals, a high-functioning excelling board, and sources with an emphasis on individual giving.
Programs in our Character & Leadership Development sector--such as our Youth of the Year, Torch Clubs, and TEENSupreme Keystone Clubs--empower our youth to support and influence their Club and community, sustain meaningful relationships with others, develop a positive self-image, participate in the democratic process and respect their own and others’ cultural identities.
In addition, our Programs in the Education and Career Development sector--such as our Power Hour, ClubService, Go Center, Project Learn, Goals for Graduation, Junior Staff, Money Matters, and DIY STEM, to name a few-enable youth to become proficient in basic educational disciplines, apply learning to everyday situations, and embrace technology to achieve success in a career.
The Boys and Girls Clubs of Edinburg also offers programs
within the sports, fitness, and recreation sector, like our intramural sports and field trips that help develop physical fitness, positive use of leisure time, skills for stress management, and interpersonal skills.
Lastly, our Programs in the Health and Wellness sector-such as SMART Moves, SMART Leaders, SMART Girls, Healthy Habits, and Passport to Manhood--help develop young people’s capacity to engage in positive behaviors that nurture their well-being, set personal goals, and live successfully as self-sufficient adults.
For countless youth and teens, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Edinburg RGV provides a safe place to learn, make friends, and shine a light on a path that will lead them to great futures. We are proud to acknowledge that with the help from the local community and businesses, we have been able to continue these services for our members for the past five decades, and we thank our incredible and generous community for all the support they continue to provide to our organization.
