Fulfilling a Need in Immokalee
The Immokalee community is rapidly growing and is projected to accelerate, therefore increasing the needs of services for families. The Boys & Girls Club of Collier County is stepping up to provide a coordinated, comprehensive out-of-school time support system that champions academic performance and nurtures the healthy development of all disadvantaged and at-risk youth.
With a current enrollment of 5,470 students in K-12, an estimated 2,855 have an unmet need for high-quality, out-of-school programs such as the Boys & Girls Club.
The Boys & Girls Club is honored to be a part of the strong sense of community in Immokalee and looks forward to serving the needs of its youth and families.
A special thank you to those who have graciously given to support our mission to reach the children and families in the Immokalee community.
