Our Vision
In 2025, the Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield reached an incredible milestone - raising the support needed to launch and sustain our first two years of programming at our current Club site inside Lincoln Elementary School.
And now, with the continued support of our community, we’re working to take the next step forward.
Our vision is a permanent home - a 30,000-square-foot Club designed to serve up to 300 youth every day where they can learn, grow and belong.
Located in the former JCPenney’s building near local schools, this space will remove transportation barriers and expand access for families across the community.
This isn't just a building.
It’s a long-term investment in Marshfield’s future.
Why This Matters Now?
Families Need Support
77% of local families with children have both parents working - far above the national average.
Access to Meals Matters
56%
of youth served last summer qualified for Free or Reduced-Priced Meals.
Teens Need Opportunity
Marshfield lacks dedicated spaces for teens to grow and connect.
Access Shouldn’t Be an Issue
A central location removes transportation challenges for families.
Club Core Features:
Teen Center
Providing teens and tweens with a space of their own, the Teen Center offers a safe and engaging environment where they can
connect, learn, and grow.
