 Thank you for your interest in supporting our kids!
The annual cost to provide programming to our 1,200 plus members is over $500 per child. Despite this high cost the Boys and Girls Club of Marshfield is committed to remaining affordable and only charges a $50 annual membership fee for our members. As a result of this low membership fee, we must rely on the generosity of donors such as you to support our program costs. Your tax deductible gift to the It Just Takes One Campaign will help support our annual operating budget and will have a direct impact on the members that we serve each day. We appreciate your generosity.
Boys and Girls Club of America Survey Results

• 61% of alumni became more committed to their education because of Boys & Girls Clubs.
• 28% of alumni would have dropped out of high school if not for Boys & Girls Clubs.
• Nationally, 16% of all students do not go on to graduate from high school, while only 8% of Boys & Girls Club alumni did not finish.
• Overall, 26% of Boys & Girls Clubs alumni earned a 4-year college degree. This rate is equal to the national benchmark, a remarkable achievement since many Club members come from disadvantaged circumstances.
