Boys & Girls Clubs of Volusia/Flagler Counties

What Boys & Girls Clubs of Volusia/Flagler Counties does

Boys & Girls Clubs of Volusia/Flagler Counties Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit youth development organization founded in 1992 and headquartered in DeLand, Florida. It operates eight Club locations across Volusia and Flagler Counties serving nearly 2,000 youth annually through structured after-school, summer, and teen programs. The organization delivers an integrated suite of programming across six core pillars — Character, Education, Health, Sports, Arts, and Workforce — supplemented by an Opioid & Substance Prevention Guide and a Salesforce-based Parent Portal for online enrollment. Programs are staffed by trained Club personnel in physical clubhouse facilities and target children and teens, with a secondary persona of parents and families seeking safe, affordable out-of-school care.

The business model is a donation-and-grant-funded nonprofit. Revenue is sourced from individual charitable contributions, event-based fundraising, the Blue Door Society planned-giving and annual-fund program (operated through GiveLively), and government grants including Volusia County Community Development Block Grant funding earmarked for capital projects. Membership fees for youth are low or undisclosed, consistent with the mission of serving youth "especially those who need us most." Distribution is exclusively regional, with no national or international footprint. The current operating portfolio includes the Lacey Family Spring Hill Boys & Girls Club in DeLand and the New Smyrna Beach clubhouse, which has been closed since 2022 hurricane damage and is undergoing restoration.

The organization is currently in a capital-expansion phase. The Althea Ross Chavers Teen Center at the DeLand Spring Hill campus was approximately 90% complete as of March 2026, funded through Volusia County CDBG and private donations, and the New Smyrna Beach clubhouse rebuild is being led by Green Technology Construction. Governance is exercised by a Board of Directors sworn in annually at the organization's Annual Meeting and Campus Celebration. Leadership is provided by CEO Camesha Samuel. The organization has no subsidiaries, no parent company, no institutional investors, and operates under community board governance.
