BACK2SCHOOL

School Supply & Backpack Drive


90% of our Club kids cannot afford basic school supplies, like pens and notebooks.

Our Clubs can provide the safe place, adult guidance, and enriching experiences to help them in their journey to success, but we ask our corporate partners, neighborhood friends, and donors to help provide the supplies they need.


YOU DON'T HAVE TO WAIT IN LINE AT A STORE TO HELP OUR CLUB MEMBERS! 

We have partnered with Amazon, so you can pick the items you want to donate and they get delivered directly to us to distribute.  Make a huge difference in just about 5 minutes from the comfort of your home.

DONATION DROP OFF LOCATION


Boys & Girls Clubs of Long Beach - Administration Office

3635 Long Beach Blvd.

Long Beach, CA 90807


For any questions or for pick-up coordination, please contact Kari at (562) 595-5945 or KariC@bgclublb.org.


In addition to the Annual School Supply Drive, we are also asking the community to sponsor a child’s membership to the Clubs. 


We serve over 2,500 kids annually, where it costs the Club $1,200 to serve one youth for one year. The child’s family is only asked to pay $15 a school year, but no one is turned away for the inability to pay.


Please consider a one time donation or joining FutureBuilders, our monthly donor community, today! 


THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
