Engage. Inspire. Empower.
Wakeman BGC offers proven and nationally recognized programs developed by Boys & Girls Clubs of America to provide extra-curricular enrichment opportunities for children and teens in the Fairfield, Bridgeport, and surrounding communities.
With a focus on academic success, healthy lifestyles, and character & leadership, our programs are designed to meet the social, emotional, and developmental needs of local youth of all ages and interests.
Programs focused on academic success are designed to ensure that all Club members graduate from high school on time, ready for a post-secondary education and a 21st-century career, while Arts programs foster creativity in young people and give them outlets for self-expression.
Sports & Recreation
These Club programs help develop physical fitness, reduce stress and promote a positive use of leisure time, appreciation for the environment and interpersonal skills.
Leadership & Service
We emphasize developing good character and leadership skills so that youth are empowered to make a positive impact on their community.
Workforce Readiness
To help young people meet the workforce challenges of tomorrow, they need safe spaces, positive mentorship and work experiences today. At Wakeman BGC, we encourage kids to explore their interests and passions and give them the opportunities to apply their knowledge to real world experiences.
Special One-Day Events
Throughout the year, the Club offers opportunities for members to gather for fun activities such as movie nights, career fairs, sports tournaments, and celebrations.
