OUR HISTORY



Celebrating 71 years of service to
San Antonio's youth.
(1939 - 2010)


The Boys Clubs opened in San Antonio in 1939 and was located on Dolorosa Street. Over the years the clubs grew in stature, membership and facilities, so much so that in 1963, Congressman Henry B. Gonzales presented then-President John F. Kennedy with a gavel and handmade box created by the members in their woodworking shop.

In 1976, girls were invited to become members and the name of the clubs was officially changed in 1991 to the Boys & Girls Clubs of
San Antonio.
