Making Great Futures Possible
Helping Kids Throughout Greater Conejo Valley Thrive
Every great future starts somewhere and for thousands of kids in the Greater Conejo Valley, it starts at the Clubs, because someone like you decided to show up for them.
For 25 years, Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Conejo Valley has been a constant, stable presence for youth in this community. The Clubs aren’t just a place to go after school; they’re a place where kids are known by name, where they are supported by caring adults, and where they are given the tools to build a future worth believing in.
This can’t happen without you.
Whether you donate , volunteer your time, attend our events, or join our team, every act of support sends the same powerful message to a child who needs to hear it most:
You matter. Your future matters. And you don’t have to figure it out alone.
The Reality in Our Community
Our need is real, but so is your power to change it.
Conejo Valley is a remarkable community, but for thousands of families providing their children with enriching before-and-after-school care and safe summer programming is simply out of reach.
61,394 households in Ventura County struggle to make ends meet, putting quality after-school programs beyond their children’s grasp.
1 in 4 households in our county experiences food insecurity. Last year, we distributed more than 77,000 healthy meals and snacks alone.
Quality after-school care can exceed $1,000 per month per child which is an impossibility for countless working families who simply need safe, supportive care while they work to keep their families going.
There are real kids and families in our neighborhoods and in communities you drive through every day. And they are waiting for an induvidual who believes they deserve better. That individual could be you.
Look What We’ve Built Together
Here’s what you made possible last year:
3,000+
youth served across five Club sites
77,000+
healthy meals and snacks distributed
1,300+
summer camp registrations — including a 200% increase in teen enrollment
$694,301
in financial aid and scholarships, so no child is ever turned away due to inability to pay
1,000+
service hours contributed, valued at more than $36,000 in community impact
Here’s what that really means for our members:

The Boys and Girls Club feels like a safe and welcoming place. The Club gives me a place to be myself and to build friendships — it is more than just a place to go after school. It is a community that helps me become a better person.

Every Child Deserves a Champion
Here’s How to Be One with BGC Conejo
There are many ways to invest in the future of Conejo Valley’s youth. Find the one that fits you and know that every single act of support adds up to something that lasts a lifetime.
Ways to Give
Creating New Opportunities Through Generosity
You don’t have to be a teacher, a coach, or a mentor to change a child’s life. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is make sure the resources are there when a child needs them most.
Your financial gift funds safe spaces, nutritious meals, homework help, leadership programs, arts and STEM, summer camp, and so much more — for kids who might otherwise go without any of it. No gift is too small. Every dollar goes to work immediately, with 84 cents of every dollar going directly to program services.
Give today and ensure no child in Conejo Valley is ever turned away.
Volunteer
Show Up & Change a Life
Maybe you remember a teacher who saw something in you that you couldn’t see yourself or a coach who pushed you to keep going. Maybe you had a mentor who helped you believe your future was worth fighting for.
Now you can be that person.
Our volunteers bring skills, time, and heart into our Clubs by tutoring students, leading enrichment sessions, mentoring young leaders, and simply being a caring adult presence in a child’s week. The commitment is flexible and the impact is real. We have 1 in every 4 middle schoolers in the region walking through our doors and they need people like you in their corner.

Youth of the Year
Honor Tomorrow’s Leaders Today
Each year, we celebrate our most outstanding young members at the Youth of the Year Luncheon, a moving event that puts the spotlight exactly where it belongs: on the kids.
Youth of the Year is the highest honor a Club member can receive, recognizing exceptional leadership, academic achievement, service to community, and the resilience to overcome real challenges. These young people don’t just represent the best of what our Clubs strive to inspire, they represent the best of what our entire community is capable of becoming.
You won’t leave unchanged.
