Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BGCA) has served as a leading organization in terms of enabling young people to do good things with their lives for over 100 years. It provides young people, ages 6-18, with guidance-oriented character programs. There are millions of Americans from countless walks of life, each with their own success story. Ask them where it all started and the answer for many will be the same: their local Boys & Girls Club. Such testimony speaks to the profound impact Clubs have on kids, as a positive place where hope and opportunity meet. Each of us has the power to shape a young life and help a child to "be great". 

The Phi Kappa Psi fraternity is encouraging its members to interact with Boys & Girls Clubs in their local area. Boys & Girls Clubs are recognized leaders in the field of youth development and after-school programming. Involvement with the Club in your community will provide many opportunities to express the Phis Psi motto “The Great Joy of Serving Others”, strengthening public relations while giving back to the community.
