Háu Mitȟámaške! (Hello my friends!)

The Boys & Girls Club of Standing Rock is a 501 C 3 non-profit organization that has been in existence since 1999. It has been a safe and happy place for children and youth over the years. It has helped and touched the lives of over 2,000 children and youth in the small community of McLaughlin, SD on the Standing Rock Indian Reservation. The majority of which are Native American. Many of the same children are club members.

Continued support and funding is needed for programs and services that the club provides to members. Programs such as; youth leadership, tutoring, mentoring, diabetes prevention, and others.

According to recent studies, children who are unsupervised after school are not only in danger of becoming victims of crimes or accidents; they are also at risk in other less dramatic but equally troubling ways. These children are at risk of falling behind academically, socially, and emotionally. They are at higher risk than other children and youth of substance abuse and gang involvement. Programs such as the Boys & Girls Club keep kids safe and inspire them to learn in a supportive environment.

The funding will strictly go to the Programs, Members and Staff to enable to keep the club open! Please help, we greatly appreciate all the help we can get!

Let's Encourage the NATIVE YOUTH together!

Also we was known as "Boys and Girls Club of Grand River Area" we changed our organizations name over the years!
