Welcome to Boys & Girls Clubs of America Planned Giving
Thank you for your interest in the Boys & Girls Clubs of America. As a service for our friends and supporters, we have added this website with helpful information about planned giving options. We are pleased to announce that we now can offer you a Charitable Gift Annuity. If you are not familiar with this type of gift option please contact us and we would be happy to send you information. Contributing to a gift annuity qualifies you to become a member of the Boys & Girls Clubs of America's The Heritage Club. These are individuals, like you, who are passionate about supporting all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring and responsible citizens. They have become members of The Heritage Club by making a planned gift. We invite you to explore the benefits of gift planning and to see how your gift might help save a child.
