Manchester Boys and Girls Club

What Manchester Boys and Girls Club does

Manchester Boys and Girls Club, legally Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Manchester (Tax ID 02-0226033), is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit youth development organization founded in 1907 and headquartered at 555 Union Street, Manchester, NH. The organization operates four physical sites — the Union Street Clubhouse, Highland-Goffe's Falls, Jewett Street, and the 20-acre Camp Foster summer facility — delivering before- and after-school care, summer programming, and enrichment activities for children and youth in the Manchester area. Its programming is structured around approximately 160 distinct programs organized into five core value areas: Character & Leadership Development, Education & Career Development, Health & Life Skills, Arts, and Sports, Fitness & Recreation. The Jordan Singer Youth Enrichment Center serves as a dedicated enrichment facility, and the organization also runs seasonal Kidz Kampers and Tween/Teen Summer Programs.

The organization's go-to-market is community-based and relationship-driven rather than commercial. It serves two primary segments: children and youth members (the direct beneficiaries) and working parents and families (the purchasing/decision-making segment seeking safe supervision and enrichment). Distribution is exclusively through physical locations and bus transportation, with no digital delivery channel. Brand and community engagement are built via Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, email newsletters, and recurring signature events including the Foundation of Friends Breakfast, Speakers Series Luncheon, Annual Hall of Fame, and Evolution Tours.

Revenue is generated entirely through fundraising, sponsorships, and ancillary facility use rather than fee-for-service pricing. The primary revenue streams are individual donations via the annual campaign and Champions For Kids Society, corporate sponsorships, facility rentals of the renovated headquarters, and event sponsorships. The organization holds a Charity Navigator 4-Star Rating and GuideStar Platinum Transparency Seal, and is governed by a local Board of Directors as an independently operated affiliate of the national Boys & Girls Clubs of America network.
