About Us

Children have been coming to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Santa Rosa since 1949, when we first opened our doors where the Montgomery Village Post Office is today, at 707 Hahman Drive, as the Boys Club.

Donated and built by Hugh Codding in 1952, the Central Club is located today at 1011 Hahman Drive. Everyday, dozens of Santa Rosa’s most disadvantaged youth stream through our doors and meet positive role models, feel safe and secure and participate in life-changing programming.

Our mission is simple: to inspire and empower all young people, especially those who need us most, to realize their full potential as productive, responsible and caring citizens. To ensure we fulfill this mission, the Clubs charge a low membership fee and no one is turned away because they cannot pay.

We have more than 15 full-and-part-time employees and many volunteers who help Santa Rosa’s youth succeed. They are led by a top-notch CEO and a 10 member Board of Directors, and are guided by the same passion that drove our original founder reach the youth who need us most.
