Boys & Girls Clubs of Oakland (BGCO) is a nonprofit organization based in Oakland, California, dedicated to helping youth ages 6 to 17 develop into positive contributors to society. The organization operates multiple facilities in Oakland that provide safe spaces for learning and growth, including libraries, computer labs, social and recreation areas, teen centers, and full gymnasiums, with the Anna Marie Branch also offering performing arts space and a music recording studio. BGCO coordinates a range of after-school and year-round programs through program directors, teen staff, and volunteers, delivering tutoring, sports, STEM, and life-skills activities aimed at academic success, healthy lifestyles, and responsible citizenship. The aim is to produce well-rounded students who are physically fit, practice constructive leisure activities, and graduate on time.

As part of the nonprofit sector focused on youth development, BGCO leverages its community-focused facilities to serve local youths and families in the Oakland area. The organization emphasizes structured, hands-on programming beyond school hours, designed to support educational attainment and personal development. In April 2026, BGCO announced an event—Salute to Youth and a live bidder showcase—to engage supporters and the community in its ongoing activities.
