GREAT FUTURES
START HERE
The Boys & Girls Clubs of Kennebec Valley is the place where great futures are started each and every day.
In every community, boys and girls are left to find their own recreation and companionship in the streets. An increasing number of children are at home with no adult care or supervision. Young people need to know that someone cares about them.
Serving over 1,300 kids annually through
quality child care and teen programming
Serving 120,000 meals annually
Serving over 1,700 community members through community outreach including our Oldies but Goodies program with 75 members
Serving over 700 youth athletes in soccer, lacrosse, and softball

We are proud to announce Alyssa Marlowe as the Boys & Girls Clubs of Kennebec Valley’s 2026 Youth of the Year!
Alyssa is a senior at Gardiner Area High School, a three-sport varsity athlete, a member of the National Honor Society, and an incredible leader in our Club community. As an 11-year Club member and Vice President of Keystone Club, she has contributed more than 1,000 hours of community service and continues to lead with heart, dedication, and compassion.
Through her Youth of the Year platform, Alyssa hopes to raise awareness about youth hunger and the importance of Club programming so all young people have access to consistent meals without fear or stigma.
This fall, Alyssa will attend Husson University to study Forensic Psychology — and we cannot wait to see all she accomplishes.
