A Place to Grow
Fun and engaging after-school care where children develop academically, emotionally and spiritually
Enriching After-school Care
Offering services in 27 schools throughout East Texas, the Boys & Girls Clubs of East Texas provides a fun, safe and enriching after-school care for children in elementary and middle school. Our program is uniquely designed to give students a safe place to play, to learn and grow, to foster encouraging relationships with caring role models, and to build character and confidence in all of our kids. We’ve even figured out how to get them to do their homework!
Announcing The Club - our middle school program! Offered at Boulter and Three Lakes Middle Schools. Check out our locations page for more information.
A ministry of The Mentoring Alliance, the Boys & Girls Clubs of East Texas is part of a network of mentoring ministries designed to help children reach their God-given potential.
If my kids rode the bus home, they would probably snack and sit in front of the television until I get home. Because of the Boys & Girls Club, my boys get play time with their friends and even get their homework done so there are no worries at home! What a blessing that has been for me!
Boys & Girls Clubs Parent
My son has some behavior challenges and the staff have worked really hard to help my son be successful. I love the emphasis on Christian values and the Bible Studies they do. It’s affordable, quality care for my son in the afternoon hours while his father and I finish work. Thank you, Boys & Girls Clubs of East Texas!
