Boys and Girls Club Volunteer
LOU Barksdale Boys and Girls Club
413 Washington Ave
Oxford, MS
Do you remember your favorite place when you were a kid? Maybe it was a friend’s house where you could always play fun games. Maybe it was your own treehouse. Maybe it was snuggled up next to your parents. Maybe (we’re getting crazy here!) it was school. Wherever it was, it was likely a place where you felt safe and had fun.
Boys & Girls Clubs aim to create more spaces like that in the world for kids across our communities. Instead of having kids out on the streets, left to their own devices to educate and entertain themselves, Boys & Girls Clubs are spaces where kids can have a great time as they learn and grow. These Clubs offer programs and services aimed at helping boys and girls know their own self-worth while feeling capable and like they belong.
The ultimate goals of Boys & Girls Clubs across the country is to support kids during their formative years. In the Lafayette County area, they do that through before and after school programs, activities during school breaks, summer camp programs, weekend sports, and more! The Barksdale LOU Boys & Girls Clubs spread these programs to students throughout our community.
Greatness Starts Here.
