Boys Club of Duluth a.k.a. Boys & Girls Clubs of the Northland

Great Futures Start Here.

The Boys & Girls Clubs fill that gap between school and home. We provide welcoming, positive environments in which kids and teens have fun, participate in life-changing programs, and build supportive relationships with peers and caring adults.

OUR STORY

Since 1971, the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Northland has helped countless youth find a safe, positive place to engage in a variety of high-impact programs and activities, all with the goal of empowering them to reach their full potential. Our services span the Duluth-Superior region, including St. Louis County (MN) and Douglas County (WI), into the Iron Range area, and now in Hibbing. Today, our Clubs have grown to include five branches across the Northland region:

•   Two branches in Duluth, Minnesota

•   One branch in Superior, Wisconsin

•   One branch in Grand Rapids, Minnesota

•   One branch in Hibbing, Minnesota

CURRENT PROGRAMS and ACTIVITIES

All of our Clubs’ programs and activities are evidence-based and strategically designed to increase attitudes toward school, improve social relationships, and decrease risky behaviors in youth. To evaluate our impact on the youth we serve, we use our “Formula for Impact,” which measures four priority outcomes, including Academic Success, Health & Well-being, Character & Leadership, and Life & Workforce Readiness.

OUR MISSION

“To empower and inspire all young people, especially those who need us the most, to reach their full potential as caring, productive, responsible citizens.” 

OUR GOAL 

Our goal is to provide as many youth as possible with a safe, supportive environment that provides them the services they need to achieve bright futures as caring adults. 

OUR IMPACT

Over 8,000 youth served 

Over 2,500 hours of tutoring

Over 52,000 healthy meals and snacks provided
