Welcome,
More than just a tagline,
GREAT FUTURES START
HERE
speaks to the unlimited potential of today’s Club members, and a
testament to the success of the Club’s alumni. There are many
notable individuals who credit Boys & Girls Clubs as a powerful
influence in their lives. Among them are national
co-spokespersons Denzel Washington and Jennifer Lopez, along
with General Wesley Clark, Misty Copeland, John Paul DeJoria,
Jackie Joyner-Kersee, Shaquille O'Neal, Ashanti, Smokey
Robinson, and Martin Sheen.
Locally, while not quite as high profile, there are Club alumni
who positively impact everyday life. Among these alumni are
business owners, police officers, firefighters, veterans and
members of the armed forces, fathers, mothers, coaches,
community leaders, volunteers, teachers, neighbors, and possibly
even yourself. As a Club alumnus myself, I take great pride in
being a part of this fraternity, and I’m proud to help carry on
the tradition of the Martha's Vineyard Boys & Girls Club.
The Martha's Vineyard Boys & Girls Club provides high-impact,
affordable programs, and caring adult mentorship to give kids an
opportunity to learn and grow. Every day, the Club emphasizes
academic success, good character and citizenship, and healthy
lifestyles.
Every child follows a path in life. For many that path will lead
them to a door, a door that gives them a place to grow, to
learn, to belong; a place to forge their future. For 74 years
the Martha's Vineyard Boys & Girls Club has opened this door for
the Island’s youth, and while many doors open, this doors
transforms.
