Scholarships

The Boys & Girls Clubs of the Olympic Peninsula is pleased to offer the Karen Byrd Memorial Scholarship in memory of a local educator. High school seniors on the peninsula continuing their education, in a two or four-year institution, are eligible for an estimated $1,500 award. 

Any previous recipient may reapply for a second award.
Academic Success
We offer sixteen Boys & Girls Clubs of America national programs, and nineteen community programs tailored for the youth of our area.

The Clubs deliver structured programs in three core areas: Academic Success, Healthy Lifestyles, and Good Character. At-risk youth are tutored in subjects they are falling behind in, especially algebra and literacy. Since initiating Homework Club, staff and volunteers have regularly assisted and tutored our members in their learning goals.

We are proud to say every member who was a high school senior graduated on-time at both Clubs.
