Boys & Girls Clubs of Providence is a mid-sized nonprofit in the civic and social sector, based in Providence, Rhode Island. For 155 years it has provided a safe space and structured programming that allows city youth to play, grow, and learn. A substantial share of its members live in poverty—about 82%—and the organization aims to disrupt cycles of poverty by addressing barriers to education and opportunities that develop skills and interests.

Its mission focuses on enabling diverse or disadvantaged youth to reach their full potential, become productive and healthy members of society, and contribute to their communities. The organization envisions Rhode Island poverty solutions through pathways to education and employment, including exposure to higher education and training, help in securing education, introductions to professions, and a concrete plan for pursuing an individual vision. Locally, the operation is oriented toward a modest staff and a community-focused presence in Providence.
