— Rebekah, Club Parent

“My son has formed new friendships and progressed academically beyond what we could have achieved at home.”

From Partnership to Independence

We’re proud to have launched our journey with the guidance and support of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Magic Valley, whose 27 years of experience helped us bring quality youth programming to Southeast Idaho. Their mentorship and initial sponsorship made it possible for us to open our doors in 2022.

Today, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Southeast Idaho operates as a fully independent organization — locally led, locally funded, and dedicated to serving the unique needs of families in our own community.

We remain deeply grateful to our early partners and sponsors, including Idaho Central Credit Union, Portneuf Medical Center, and other community supporters, whose belief in our mission helped make our beginnings possible.
