What Boys & Girls Clubs of Lee County does
Mission
To enable all young people, especially those who need us the most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Boys & Girls Clubs of Lee County (bgclc) is committed to providing a safe, supportive, and inclusive environment where young people can thrive during out-of-school time. Our mission is to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, and responsible citizens. Each year, one in five youth lacks access to safe, supervised after-school programming, leaving them vulnerable to academic decline, social isolation, and other risk factors during critical out-of-school hours. In addition, three out of four youth do not have access to high-quality summer programming, contributing to significant summer learning loss and widening educational disparities. To address these challenges, bgclc delivers research-based, high-quality programming focused on academic success, workforce readiness, leadership development, health and wellness, the arts, and sports and recreation. As an outcome-driven organization, we are dedicated to ensuring every child who enters our clubs has the opportunity to succeed academically, develop strong character and citizenship skills, and lead a healthy lifestyle. Bgclc currently serves more than 1,400 youth…

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $603k to $2.7M (+345%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 23% · 2018 26% · 2019 32% · 2020 37% · 2021 17% · 2022 19% · 2025 35%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
