The mission of the Boys & Girls Club of Pasadena is to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens. We envision a future where all youth graduate high school ready with the knowledge, skills, and values to succeed and give back in life. Our goal for every member who walks through our doors is for them to experience academic success, develop good character and citizenship, and practice healthy lifestyles. To help our youth develop into well-rounded adults we offer programs in five core areas: Education & Career Development; Character & Leadership Development; Health & Life Skills; the Arts, and Sports, Fitness & Recreation.
