The Boys & Girls Club of Kootenai County was established after Kootenai County community leaders started looking for a place and programs to keep kids in the area active, engaged and out of high-risk activities.
We positively IMPACT 600 kids in Kootenai County with our programs and mentorship each year. The NEED is 10 times greater than what we can fulfill - contact us to learn how you can help us fill the gap.
What we do
The Clubs help instill positive values and perspective with fun and educational programs during the after-school and summer periods. Boys & Girls Club programs emphasize: character and leadership development, education, health, life skills, the arts, and sports fitness. Mentorship is the key component to our club's success - each club member connects with a staff member as an extension of their immediate influence, developing a bond that often lasts a lifetime.

Sponsor a Kid :: 300 Club
How much would a donation of $25 / month help us support a club member? That's a night at the movies or a few lattes for most of us.
There's a gap between the low membership fees for each kid ($40/year) and how much it costs to provide programs to them (roughly $350/kid). Please consider joining our 300 Club and donating $25/month or $300/year - this makes a huge impact on our club. Download our signup form here.
