Stated Purpose:
The mission of Boys & Girls Clubs of Northwest San Diego is to inspire, develop, and enrich young people to reach their fullest potential as confident, responsible, caring members of society.
Year, State Incorporated:
1966, CA
Also Known As:
Boys and Girls Clubs of San Dieguito
The story begins over half a century ago when two organizations—Boys & Girls Clubs of San Dieguito and Boys & Girls Clubs of Oceanside—began to support youth and families in their local communities. For decades, each Club provided safe spaces, essential programming, and mentorship, evolving alongside the communities they served. From the establishment of the original facilities in the 1950s and ‘60s to the construction of new centers, Clubhouses, and recreation areas, we’ve been rooted in enriching young lives.
In 2024, Boys & Girls Clubs of San Dieguito and Boys & Girls Clubs of Oceanside joined forces as Boys & Girls Clubs of Northwest San Diego. United, the mission remains steadfast: to provide safe, nurturing environments where children and teens from all backgrounds can grow, learn, and succeed. With eight clubhouses and specialized programs, we now offer expanded services, from after-school support to teen leadership initiatives, with a shared commitment to character-building, academic achievement, and personal growth.
Now, this Club is the second largest Boys & Girls Club organization in San Diego County. The Club is defined as a Major Metro Organization by Boys & Girls Clubs of America due to the size of our annual
budget and the number of children we serve. Today, the organization serves:
6,500 registered members in the After School Program
16,500+ total number of youth served through membership in the after-school programs (8 Clubhouses
and 8 specialty programs) and activities held at our sites and in the community for non-member youth
$655,000+ in financial assistance awarded each year
For the year ended June 30, 2023, Boys & Girls Clubs of Northwest San Diego's program expenses were:
| Youth Community Services | $6,159,571 |
| Scholarships | $57,580 |
| Total Program Expenses | $6,217,151 |
