Let me tell you about them.
Since January 1992, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Bloomington-Normal has been a recognized 501(c)3 nonprofit organization based in Bloomington, Illinois. The Clubs original location was in the basement of the John Kane Homes Community Center. By 1993 the Club had outgrown that space and moved to its current location, a part of the Lawrence Irvin Neighborhood Center (LINC.) We currently operate after-school and summer enrichment programs in three locations serving the academic, emotional, cultural, and social needs of youth ages 5-18. Our Club gives kids opportunities to succeed through programs that impact their lives. Currently, we provide quality programs and services for underserved children as well as introduce their families to other resources in our community. Our programs include homework help and tutoring, STEM activities focusing on the future of technology, introduction to the arts, leadership, service-learning, as well as career exploration and development.
