Boys and Girls Clubs Case Study

Children have been coming to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Milwaukee since 1887, when Annabell Cook Whitcomb transformed two basement rooms at Plymouth Church in downtown Milwaukee into a Club for boys.

Today, the organization is one of the largest and longest running youth-serving agencies in Milwaukee, offering structured after-school and summer programming to more than 43,000 children and teens each year. Within the safety of the Clubs, youth have access to academic support, free meals, role models, and opportunities to build character and explore new interests.”
