About Boys & Girls Club of Laguna Beach - Also Serving Saddleback Area
Boys & Girls Club of Laguna Beach - Also Serving Saddleback Area
The Boys & Girls Club of Laguna Beach, which also serves children in the Saddleback Valley area, was founded in 1952 by a group of caring, concerned citizens who recognized that young people needed a safe, enriching, and fun place to spend their time when not in school. Since then, we have grown the depth and breadth of our impact, currently serving over 3,000 young people ages 3 - 18 each day (during and after school) at 10 sites in Laguna Beach, Lake Forest, and Mission Viejo. What sets Boys & Girls Clubs apart from other youth-serving agencies is our mandate to never turn away a child due to financial circumstances. This is why community support is the bedrock of our impact.
