2018 Annual Report & counting 2018 ANNUAL REPORT The mission of Boys & Girls Clubs of Boston is to help young people, especially those who need us most, build strong character and realize their full potential as responsible citizens and leaders. We do this by providing: a safe haven filled with hope and opportunity, ongoing relationships with caring adults, and life-enhancing programs. BOYS & GIRLS CLUBS OF BOSTON 2018 ANNUAL REPORT 1 ear Friends, This was a year of great celebration for Boys & Girls Clubs of Boston, as 2018 marked our 125th anniversary of helping young people, especially those who need us most, build strong character and realize their full potential as responsible citizens and leaders. Since we first opened our doors in Charlestown in 1893, Boys & Girls Clubs of Boston has depended on generous individual, corporate, foundation, and government donors to ensure our continued success. With your help, we have remained a pioneer in youth development, offering life-enhancing programs that create a brighter future for our children and teens. As times have changed over the decades, BGCB’s Clubs have remained a beacon of hope and opportunity for the young people we serve, providing safe spaces in which our members can learn and grow despite the challenges they may face at home or in their neighborhoods. From cobbling and woodworking to music production and wheelchair basketball, BGCB’s programs have evolved over more than a century. What has remained consistent is the dedication of our expert staff members, from aquatics directors to social workers, who serve as role models and create positive, lasting relationships with our members. Young people who have a mentor are much more likely to be leaders in the Club and community, volunteer, and go on to college. Today, 89% of our members say there is at least one staff person at their Club who they would turn to in a crisis. Fostering this sense of safety and belonging has been at the root of our service for 125 years, and your support has allowed us to maintain the programs and relationships necessary to do so. On behalf of the 14,000 children and teens we serve, thank you. With gratitude, Josh Kraft Nicholas President and CEO+ +The senior professional position at Boys & Girls Clubs of Boston was named in 2006 in recognition of Pete and Ginny Nicholas to honor their deep commitment to the organization and to further their dedication to ensuring excellence in organizational leadership. 2 ear Friends, Throughout Boys & Girls Clubs of Boston’s 125th anniversary year—and my first year as Chair of its Board of Directors—I have been proud to witness the impact our Clubs and YouthConnect continue to have on the youth of Boston and Chelsea. As an alumnus of Boys & Girls Clubs of Bellevue, Washington, I know firsthand the important role our Clubs play in the lives of the young people we serve. As a member of BGCB’s Board of Trustees and Board of Directors for more than 15 years, I also know the vital role that you play in our many successes. The support of our board members, donors, and community partners is integral to our work. With your help, BGCB raised $20 million in operating funds in 2018, and served 14,000 young people during the school year and 2,000 at our summer camps. For 125 years, BGCB has remained dedicated to providing the young people we serve with an outcomes-driven experience that helps them succeed academically, live healthy lifestyles, and practice good citizenship. As the years pass, our programming constantly evolves to meet the needs and interests of our members. In 2018, each of our 11 Clubs offered fun STEAM activities to inspire early interest in science, technology, engineering, arts, and math. Offerings included homegrown programs as well as opportunities delivered through partners like Northeastern Robotics, Girls Who Code, and Music & Youth. We are guided by our mission to help all those who attend our Clubs to be responsible, caring, and contributing members of their communities. The pathway to success relies on our ability to provide our youth with the skills they need to be accomplished adults in the 21st century. In 2018, we made great progress in strategic planning to this end, and while there is much work still to be done, I am happy to report that BGCB is on a great path. Thank you again for all you do to ensure our continued success. With gratitude, Bruce N.

In the two-plus decades since the World Cup came to the U.S., MLS launched, and our Women’s team won the frst Women’s World Cup, we have made tremendous strides as a soccer nation. But now—to ignite the next phase of growth—we need new vision and new leadership. The U.S. Soccer Federation has risen with the tide of interest of the game in the U.S., generating record profts and an impressive sur- plus. Yet while riding that fnancial wave, it has also lost touch with the grassroots soul of the sport, failed to invest in success at all levels of the soccer pyramid, and, most importantly, overlooked the critical role of its membership in helping build an enduring soccer culture.
