Volunteer in Boys & Girls Clubs of Rutherford County – Smyrna Unit

To provide a promise of hope and opportunity.

“For 30 years, Boys & Girls Clubs of Rutherford County has been in the forefront of youth development.  We are dedicated to ensuring that our community’s youth have greater access to quality programs and services that will enhance their lives and shape their futures.”

“Today, more than 2,600 youth are taking advantage of the programs, activities and services provided by Boys & Girls Clubs of Rutherford County.  Our vision is to provide a world-class Club experience that assures success is within reach of every young person who walks through our doors, with all members on track to graduate from high school with a plan for the future, demonstrating good character and citizenship, and living a healthy lifestyle.”

“There are children in Middle Tennessee that are fighting an uphill battle. Tennessee reports elevated rates of high school dropout, teen pregnancy, and obesity compared to national averages.  Each night, one in five children go to bed hungry, and many don’t have the resources or role models they need to change their path.”

“We are working to make sure that our Club members attending our Clubs three days or more per week are on track to graduate on time, live healthy, and give back to their community.”
