Great Futures Start Here
Boys & Girls Clubs of the Capital Area (BGCCA) has been serving Albany and Rensselaer counties for well over a century. The Albany Club first open in 1892, seven years prior to the arrival of the first automobile to city, in 1899. The Club in Troy, NY opened shortly after, in 1903.
BGCCA is the largest provider of after-school activities focused on academic achievement, character & leadership, healthy life skills, The Arts, and fitness & recreation. Every gift to The Club is an investment in the future of Capital Area youth! Your donation can help provide area children with a safe place to go after school as well as exposure to mentoring, special programs, sports activities and so much more.
Every $1 invested in Boys & Girls Clubs returns $9.60 in current and future earnings and cost-savings to the community according to a BGCA analysis.
