Grenville Baker Boys & Girls Club’s Basketball program is so much more than dribbling and shooting hoops!

While kids are running about the gym, having fun, and getting fit, they learn about sportsmanship, teamwork, and strategy. They discover valuable life lessons around collaboration, determination, and hard work. They learn to gracefully embrace both the triumphs of victory and the disappointments of defeat.

In short, through basketball, kids at the Club develop the resiliency and skills to meet life’s challenges.

In our 70-year history, these lessons have never been more important. In a year defined by uncertainty, our Club and our Club’s kids demonstrated their ability to be flexible and adaptable. Right now, while we are delighted to have been able to welcome our kids back to our facilities this summer and fall, safety concerns continue to prevent us from being able to carry out a basketball program this year.

That said… our kids still need us, and we still need you.

As we come to a close on our 70^th year of responding to the dynamic needs of the children and families in our community, we are turning to past supporters like you to help us carry on the work of helping kids reach their full potential.

Your gift today truly makes a difference in a child’s life… now and into the future, when we can once again shoot for the highest hoops.
