Where does the Boys & Girls Clubs of Lake and Sumter Counties get the money to provide all of these services? We rely on our community for support. Yes, the United Way, the Lake County Children’s Services Council, the City of Leesburg and other area private foundations generously give their support to us but our expenses far outweigh this support.

Please, we need your assistance in providing support to our area youth.

We offer scholarships and do not turn anyone away because of their inability to pay.

Donate online now using your American Express!

Please note: American Express will deduct a transaction fee of 2.25% from your donation to cover processing costs. The charities will receive your donation amount, minus the 2.25% American Express processing fee, from our partner JustGive. This transaction fee is similar to or less than the processing fee the charity would pay if you were to charge your donation with your American Express Card through any other means (i.e., over the phone to the charity, through the charity's website, etc.). You will not be charged any additional fees for using the American Express Donation Site and your dollar donations are tax deductible to the extent allowed by law.*

A donation of $125 will fund a membership for a child for the entire year. Over the course of a year, that's about $0.35 a day. A donation of $100 will fund a child for our summer program. For many families we serve, that's still beyond their means.

Click below to donate through PayPal using your Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, debit card or PayPal account.

Any spare items you have around would be greatly appreciated. Old equipment, computers, anything that can be either used at our facilities or auctioned off is welcomed. All items would directly benefit the Boys & Girls Clubs of Lake and Sumter Counties.
