GREAT FUTURES 

START HERE

ABOUT US








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.
