Dear partners and friends:

Every day at Boys and Girls Clubs of the Peninsula

(BGCP), we challenge our members to stretch, to

grow, and to imagine the possibilities their futures

may hold. And we expect no less from ourselves.

As an organization we continually ask: “How can

we continue to evolve to best meet the needs of

our community’s most underserved children?”

BGCp is growing every day. In 2012 BGCP

continued to close the opportunity gap. We grew

in both breadth and depth serving more children

and expanding and improving programs. We

delivered on the promise to help our members

develop the academic and life skills they need to

graduate high school, prepared for college or

career. In an area where 50% of children drop out

of high school, we are significantly helping our

members develop a sense of purpose and gradu-

ate with a plan.

At our nine sites in East Palo Alto, Redwood City

and eastern Menlo Park, BGCP provided 1700

children with consistent mentorship, academic

instruction, enrichment programs and a safe,

inspiring place to learn and grow.

Vital to our expanding impact is our continued evo-

lution from an after-school provider to an extended

learning day partner. BGCP has expanded our

collaborations with area schools and families. We

deepened our relationships with Ravenswood City,

Redwood City and Sequoia Union school districts

and with Taft, Belle Haven, Brentwood, Hoover,

McNair, and Menlo-Atherton schools. These school-

based partnerships continue to get stronger each

year and the demand continues. By providing

elementary through high school students with on-

site academic and enrichment opportunities, and

engaging parents in their children’s education, we

strengthen the fabric of the communities we serve.

For the first time ever, we added a full-time staff

member at Menlo-Atherton High School to focus

on the growing needs of our high school students.

Page 5: Annual Report 2012

We are thrilled to report that our summer learning

academy was stronger than ever. We expanded our

model from serving 400 to 800 students. Working

with the Sobrato Family Foundation, Ravenswood

Education Foundation, schools and community-

based organizations, we provided a quality and

targeted summer learning experience that increased

summer learning hours and academic instruction.

For the first time ever, we had a dedicated teen

center with academic programming and a strong

career exposure track.

In 2012 we strengthened our organization’s

capacity and infrastructure by creating key roles

in curriculum, program strategy and development,

as well as essential school site and clubhouse

program positions. More mentors and volunteers

committed time to our children than ever before.

Thanks to our partnerships with schools and school

districts, and to all of the foundations, corporations,

and individuals who support our work, we had a very

3

successful year. All of us at BGCP, and especially

the children you help serve, want you to know that

your support is vital and hugely appreciated.

We look forward to 2013. And we promise to

continue our commitment to provide the at-risk

youth of our community with the academic and

life skills they need to graduate from high school

ready for college or career.

With gratitude,

BGCp is opportunity. For our area’s most underserved youth, from Kinder-

garten through high school, it’s dance, digital arts and poetry. It’s tutoring

and mentorship and academic rigor. It’s trust between caring adults and

kids who need someone to turn to. It’s inspiration. And a safe haven.

At our clubs, school sites and summer academies, possibilities take

shape. Children realize what creative, strong, intelligent individuals they

are. They receive the opportunities and support so many of us take for

granted. Opportunities which for them, when given, can be a doorway

to their dreams.

Even in the heart of Silicon Valley, we are facing a dropout crisis. BGCP is

taking action to reverse this crisis now.

Children in our poorest neighborhoods don’t lack intelligence.They don’t

lack creativity, curiosity, or desire. What they lack is opportunity. And as

long as the opportunity gap exists, the achievement gap will too.

We implement those proven social and academic interventions that most

impact a child’s success in school and in life. For 1700 children in our

area’s most challenged neighborhoods, our summer academies, three

clubhouses and six school sites provide:

With patience and tenacity, BGCP tends to the needs of the entire child:

academic, physical, social, and emotional, so he or she can thrive.

The current crisis in K-12 education

is the civil rights issue of our time.

If I can look at your zip code and tell

if your child is going to get a good

education - is the American dream

still possible? Since our founding,

education has been the most impor-

tant mechanism used by our children

to change their circumstances and

achieve their dreams. BGCP only

furthers those dreams for our chil-

dren by providing mentors, opportu-

nities, and a safe place for children

to learn and grow. As a country, we

must embrace this crisis, demand

change, and support entities like

BGCP that are working to make a

difference in the lives of our children.

BGCP is a place for children to belong. It’s a road for them to walk,

hand-in-hand, with adults who mentor, who challenge, who inspire,

and who harness potential. We show young people that they are

worthy and capable. Under BGCP’s consistent care our members

come to understand that they are not alone, but surrounded by peers

and adults who support their success, and who will stand by them

as they progress towards a bright future.

Mentorship is the critical thread that runs through all the opportunities

BGCP provides. We believe that these long term, one-on-one relationships

between children and caring adults are what make the difference in a child’s

transformation. These personal ties instill a deep sense of belonging, and

are instrumental in keeping kids connected, confident and on track.

Ms. Chillin’ is like my second mom. She’s someone I can trust, and

who cares about me. She helps me with schoolwork and with life.

She helped me discover my hidden talent for building.

When I first came to the club I was a kid who really didn’t know what

I wanted to do or what I wanted to be. I cared about school, but it

wasn’t a big priority. Now for me education comes before anything in

life. Getting a scholarship to college is my first priority; I want to be

an engineer. I know now education can take you places.

“Before anything it’s about building one-on-one relationships. Then trying to find that x-factor. That special innate talent that is unique to every child. And if you can find it and develop it, they can take off.”

Cherie Nelson-Kabba, or Ms. Chillin’, BGCP mentor

“At BGCP, we start talking with kids about college and careers in Kindergarten. We want to paint a picture of a future that is different than what they see around them.”

BGCP inspires a vision for the future. We show children a way forward.

At each step in a young person’s development, BGCP is there to provide

guidance, present possibilities and ignite passions. Then together, we

develop the skills children need to succeed in school, career, and life.

nancy orocio and College Bound

BGCP means family. It’s the place where I grew as a scholar, as a

young lady, and as a passionate leader.

Years before I started thinking about college, BGCP’s College Bound

Program planted the seed; “You’re going to college. This is what it

looks like.” They exposed us to different careers, took us on college

tours and made sure I stayed on track.

According to statistics, coming from my neighborhood, I shouldn’t

be in college. But thanks to my parents, BGCP, and my mentor Tracy

Koon, I’m now a sophomore at Santa Clara University studying

Political Science. Tracy guided me through the whole process. Even

now she plays such an important part in my life. She is an advisor

and a friend. I can’t stress enough how comforting it is to know I’m

not alone, and that I’ll always have Tracy by my side.

Self-expression and empowerment are at the core of BGCp’s visual

and performance arts programs. At our three digital arts studios, young

people discover themselves, and a sense of purpose. They develop crit-

ical skills applicable to academic and professional achievement. In our

Spoken Word program members create through performance art, poetry,

essays and video projects. BGCP members ha college admis-

sions and national honors because of their work in a variety of media.

They are just blessed with talent. Our job is to encourage them,

to make them feel empowered to not just take on life’s challenges

as they come, but to go out there and challenge life.

Adobe and Microsoft donated state-of-the-art digital arts facilities to BGCP

and its members, because they know what we know. When we ignite a

young person’s passions, and support them with tangible skills, we

provide a path.

The day before my brother got shot, I promised him that I was going

to be the person that he always wanted me to be. My mentor at BGCP

is like my brother now. He helped me find my passion for music, and

to realize how important school is. I’m getting straight As now and

plan to go to college and have a career in the music industry. The

Adobe Youth Voices Academy gives us the skills for our future, and

allows us to create with purpose. I wish my brother could see me now.

I Solemnly Promise...

In high school...I...believe I can change the world...with all my might

In high school...I...believe I can change the world starting tonight

In high school...I...believe I can change the world despite

Despite what they print in the news

In spite of excuses I could have used

As students...we are learning to choose...

And today we choose

to invoke change...to enthuse

All youth...to win and not to lose

By making a vow...to never drop out of high school

Our six school-based partnerships in three local districts broaden BGCP’s

impact. They provide kindergarten through 12th grade students on-site

extended learning days filled with academic support, tutoring, mentorship

and enrichment opportunities.

Our parent education courses, and increased parental involvement, bolster

a child’s educational success.

Working together, these collaborations strengthen the families and com-

munities we serve.

the Serrato Family on How BGCp Impacts Family and Community

When Vice President Joe Biden and Senator Barbara Boxer came to

BGCP to see the program, Joe Biden asked my daughter, Angela, what

she wanted to be when she grew up. She said, “I want to be the Presi-

dent.” And I thought, “This is my daughter. She thinks big; and I like it.”

Angela says she wants to go to Notre Dame University. I tell her

she can go wherever she wants if she works hard. And so I’m thankful

BGCP is helping her. They help with her studies, dance, violin, music,

art. She has mentors and tutors. The kids in our community get so

many opportunities at BGCP.

On January 16th our house burned to the ground. We got so much

support from BGCP; it’s like a big family. Angela’s grades have

improved a lot thanks to BGCP. And their parent education courses

help me to be the best father I can be. We volunteer whenever

we can because they give us so much. BGCP is bringing a lot of

opportunity to the community and giving kids a chance. I think

if there were more programs like BGCP, then all the kids in the

United States could succeed. When we work together, we make

a difference for the future.

Ricardo Serrato

“I will be the first one in my whole entire family to go to University.

So that will be such a dream come true. BGCP helps everybody in

our neighborhood: our teachers, our principal, our staff, and the

students and parents too.”

Angela Serrato, 5th grader

“The extended learning day provides invaluable benefits to our teachers, children, and families. Through BGCP, students are provided a safe space, with caring mentors, in which they can continue learning and growing.”
