  • "I have been a part of the Boys and Girls Club since I was about 10 years old. My mom had to work 2-3 jobs and weekends were her long hours to help cover bills. My brother and I learned teamwork, perseverance, and skills, along with building lasting friendships and helping in the community. Now, I'm all grown up and have two children of my own who attend the El Pomar Club. They have learned many of the same values as my brother and I. The biggest thing for me as a single dad, is the convenience and peace of mind knowing they will be safe and productive in the BEST after school program in Colorado Springs!"

  • "The Boys & Girls Club has been an amazing experience for my family. It has meant having a safe place for my kids to go after school and during the summer. When they are at the Club I know they are learning and interacting with their peers. The Club has give them so many opportunities. From life experiences and lessons to leadership skills that they would not have learned anywhere else. My kids are more productive and better people because of the Club. I would really like to thank everyone who is involved with the Club to know how grateful we are for everything!"

  • “The Boys & Girls Club means a lot to my family. We first signed up because it was inexpensive child care and they transported my kids after school. After seeing what they do I realized that they are more than “affordable daycare”. They are teachers that truly care. They don't teach Math, English, or Science like classroom teachers, but they teach values, teamwork, respect, sharing, caring for others, and to be proud of and loving of themselves! Basically, developing these young people to be productive members of their community. They do so in a safe, structured, fun and positive environment. It’s a perfect place for my children to get good social interaction with a diverse crowd. They say it takes a community to raise a child, my family has found that community in the Boys & Girls Club. Thank you Mr. Steven and all the staff for everything you do!”
