WE DID IT! We are excited to announce that we have surpassed our 2021 financial goal of $200,000.

Over the past few months, the Paulding community, our Board, and so many of you have stepped up to demonstrate the impact and importance of this club within our community. THANK YOU! To date, our fundraising campaign has raised more than $230,000 to support our operations. Our Board is working diligently on developing a sustainable fundraising strategy that will fuel a major portion of our operation for years to come.

Faced with permanent closure, we began our campaign back in July of 2020 with the tagline “Save our Club, Team Paulding for the Win!”. You helped us prove that we are both wanted and needed in Paulding County. We have witnessed firsthand what this GREAT community can accomplish when there is a common goal.

We have made significant progress, however, WE STILL NEED YOUR HELP. We have additional hurdles to overcome. We must continue to exhibit strong financial backing from our community to demonstrate sustainability as well as address some facility concerns. Although, we love and cherish our current building it is in much need of costly repairs. We have identified three major areas of concern:

Roof replacement
Encapsulate or replace the gym floor
Repave the parking lot

Despite the effect of Covid across our nation, the Paulding Boys & Girls Club continues to serve as a bridge connecting families to educational, financial, social, and emotional support. We continue to provide members with academic assistance, college and career readiness, exposure to the arts, health related programs, and most importantly, access to caring individuals who are dedicated to positively impacting their future.

As we navigate through phase two of our plight to stay open, we have adopted a new tag line that speaks volumes of the efforts of this community, “Team Paulding, PAULDING STRONG”. Please help us continue to fight to keep our doors open. Our kids are counting on us to keep this club for generations to come. Please enclose your annual contribution today and or contact us with resources available to address our facility needs.

If you have any questions about the Paulding Boys & Girls Club funding, please contact the Club’s Executive Director, Ms. Raiko Jones, at (678) 363-8570 or by email at RJones@bgcma.org.

On behalf of the kids, thank you so much for your support!
