Strive.

Here at BWB we strive to provide youth boys with educational outdoor experiences as well as 1 on 1 mentoring.

 
 
 

Get Involved

Boys Without Barriers provides free access for low-income and at-risk kids to attend the arts, cultural, educational, and athletic venues of their community. Through partnerships & sponsors we plan to make trips to museums, concerts, ballgames, science centers, zoos, and more part of every boys childhood.

 

ENROLL A CHILD

Studies show that after-school and summer programs have a positive impact on school performance. Our programs keep kids learning and engaged in good behaviors, even outside of school hours. 

Volunteer opportunities

Our community-based program is our traditional match in which adult mentors are paired with children ages 7-18, and agree to see each other for three hours, a couple of times a month.

Our Programs

But, behind the scenes — it’s more than “just sports”.

 

monthly roller skate

Sports are beneficial for the body and mind. While keeping kids physically healthy, sports also teach the values of teamwork, leadership, and community engagement. We offer monthly skate activities.
 

1-on-1 mentorship

BWB wants to ensure we provide our youth with youth training programs that will help them achieve their goals and become successful, productive adults.
