Overview

Mission

The mission of boys & girls clubs of long beach is to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens.

What it reported doing in 2024

We provide comprehensive after-school and summer programs focused on academic and life skills, college preparation, workforce development, health and wellness, alcohol and drug use prevention, athletics, and the provision of basic needs, including meals and snacks and access to laundry machines. Our programming is designed to ensure all of the 4,673 members we serve annually have their foundational needs met and the resources and opportunities they need to thrive. We operate 14 sites in the city of long beach (three clubhouses, 10 long beach unified school district sites, and one site on the long beach city college campus), most of which are situated in neighborhoods with the most need.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
