Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Washington - Germantown Branch

"the boys and girls club in Germantown is so great!! Toman and Ashley are the best. They make the families feel appreciated and our kids well taken care of. My son was with them last year and he is going again this year for most of the summer. the facility is so clean and they have the kids engaged in so many fun activities all week long. As a Montgomery county resident I so appreciate the boys and girls club Germantown for making the summer camp experience so great for us. Great job everyone and keep it up!!"

"Boy's and Girl's Club played a major role in molding me into the man I am today. As a former club member with anger management issues, they were very patient with me and didn't give up on me. They always took the time out talk to me to understand my perspective before giving me guidance on how to behave responsibly as a gentleman. After not going to Boy's and Girl's Club for several years, I had the opportunity to come back and volunteer as a Counselor In Training (CIT). During my time as a CIT, I was able to demonstrate how well I matured as a young man while serving the youth of our community. Shortly after, I received the privilege of being offered a job at Boy's and Girl's Club as a Counselor. During my years as Counselor, I had the honor of serving youth of numerous backgrounds and be a positive influence in their lives. Throughout my time at Boy's and Girl's Club, I acquired many leadership skills, learned many life lessons, and realized that serving the community is my passion. Thank you to everyone at Boy's and Girl's Club for providing me with the tools to be successful in life and giving me the knowledge necessary to equip others to be successful as well."

"My time at BGC may have been short, but I enjoyed it. I was a volunteer CIT three and the environment and the staff were friendly and very welcoming. I was able to feel like I could open up and come to them with any problems. The kids were fun and talkative, no one was ever quiet. It was an eternally fun time and made it feel like everyone was was my friend, even if I didn’t know them."

"From middle school to high school, the Boys and Girls Club had given me endless opportunities for me to grow- as a student and as an active member in my community. During project discovery, I received homework help and I was able to stay on track with school. We also had two other rotations which could include activities in core areas such as physical activity, technology, arts, etc. Besides the regular day to day activities, we were able to go on field trips and compete against other clubs in games like flag football and participate in events like spelling bees. Overall, my experience as a club member was definitely a 10/10 :)"

"As a former boys and girls club member I can confidently say that I had most of my best as well as informative years at the boys and girls club. They have programs and lessons I use to navigate the world as a young adult. They also have a study program that helped me see a considerable growth in my gpa overall. I think that the boys and girls club is definitely a place where kids and teens can come and learn in a safe and healthy environment."
