We know our sponsors and business partners have many choices of places to support. We are grateful they choose to partner with us!

For 24 years Boys & Girls Clubs of West-Central Wisconsin has been supporting local families by offering enriching, meaningful experiences for youth. Our Clubs provide under-served youth with regular access to and engagement in areas such as STEM, sports leagues, homework help and tutoring, summer learning loss prevention, and engagement in the arts. As a result, Club youth are able to leverage and create opportunities that shift the course of their life trajectories and overcome cycles of inequity.

Additionally, access to affordable, reliable and safe out-of-school time programs allows parents and caregivers the opportunities to participate in the community's workforce. While their children are actively engaged at the Club, families can rest assured knowing that they have access to enhanced academic support to ensure youth are on track to graduate, nutritious food, opportunities to be physically active and health education, all provided by caring staff within the context of a safe, supportive Club environment. As a result, Clubs contribute to major savings for communities by helping to prevent costly expenditures for health care, public assistance programs, and criminal justice system involvement and incarceration.

In fact, in 2015, a return-on-investment (ROI) study by the Institute for Social Research and the School of Public Health at the University of Michigan found that every $1 invested in Boys & Girls Clubs returns $9.60 in economic benefits to the individual and society through future earnings and cost savings to their communities.

That means as you are considering where to invest your limited sponsorship funds, every $1 of your sponsorship returns $9.60 to the local economy.
