Introduction:	Many children have no adult supervision after school. Studies have shown that the hours between 3 and 8 p.m. are the hours that most kids are likely to get involved with crimes, be victims of crime or engage in other risky behavior. The Clubs provide an alternative to the dangers of the streets. Moreover, the Clubs provide stimulating activities that help build character, self-esteem, values and skills. Boys and Girls Clubs of the East Valley offers that and more! Our Clubs instill a sense of competence, usefulness, belonging and influence. The Globe Branch offers an after school program, teen leadership, homework and tutoring assistance. Globe, AZ was founded in 1875 as a mining camp and is now home to 7,500 people (23% of the population is 18 or younger). Due to the great need to address the issues that plague the youth and teens in the greater Globe area, the Boys & Girls Club of Globe was established March 28, 2009 under the auspices of the San Carlos Apache Indian Community Boys & Girls Club. After parting ways with San Carlos Apache Indian Community, the Globe Club merged with Boys & Girls Clubs of the East Valley on July 1, 2013, becoming the 12th Unit in the East Valley organization. The Globe Club serves over 250 members annually in After School, Summer Day Camp and Teen programs. The Globe Club is located in close proximity to Destiny Charter School, the Globe Community Center and Besh-Ba-Gowah Archeological Park. The facility is 2,500 square feet and has a new outdoor playground that was constructed in March 2013. The local schools bus to the Club daily during the After School Program. The purpose for the Globe Club is to provide a safe, positive environment for all kids as well as alternatives and support for all kids; to be available to all boys and girls with a wide variety of programs and services, and to have a professional and caring staff and Branch Board.
