The Boys and Girls Clubs of Liberia (BGCLBR) mission is to inspire and empower children and teens in Liberia, especially those who need us most, to reach their maximum potential as productive, healthy, responsible, and caring citizens.

BGCLBR was formally organized and legally registered on 02/03/2015 in Louisville, KY as a Non-profit Corporation. Two months later, on 04/23/2015 BGCLBR was also legally registered and incorporated as a Non-profit Corporation in the Republic of Liberia. After months of setbacks, including the sudden death of one of the founding members and Acting Executive Director, The Late Rev. George C. Washington, BGCLBR began the GlobalBGC Movement with a 3-month Pre-launch Program in July of 2015, BGCLBR first Club is in Gaye Town, Old Road Sinkor, Monrovia, Liberia at the Gracie A. Reeves Baptist Church. 75 youth showed.

BGCLBR has a challenging role in assisting the least privileged children and youths in Liberia. The Liberian Civil War that spanned throughout the 1989 - 2003 destroyed every fabric of the Liberian society. More than 200,000 were killed and millions were displaced. Greatly affected were the Education and Healthcare sectors. Liberian children did not only die but were turned into killer child soldiers.

During 2014 & 2015, Liberia was plagued by a deadly Ebola epidemic that claimed 4,810 lives including children. Children are always the unfortunate victims. BGCLBR presently provides after school and Vocational training programs that assist least privileged students to perform better academically and socially. Each member is encouraged to graduate high school and become a responsible citizen. BGCLBR believes that without education Liberia’s future is bleak.

BGCLBR's programs provide pathways to great futures for all children and youths of Liberia.

BGCLBR partner with Gracie A. Reeves Baptist Church as their meeting place. Connected to the church is a medical center and the Leap of Faith Academy school serving grades 1-8.
