9. History of the Boys & Girls Clubs In 1860 , several women in Hartford, Conn. decided that boys who roamed the streets should have a positive alternative. Several Boys Clubs were founded. In 1906 and 1931 , various Boys Clubs congregated into national federations (The Boys Club Federation and the Boys Clubs of America, respectively). In 1990 , the organization’s name changed to the Boys and Girls Clubs of America

19. Reflections “ It was a great feeling to make an impact in people’s lives and see how much they truly appreciated our help...” ~Julie Ahlberg on helping at the YWCA “ The team I worked with was great and I think it was great exposure for the interns to get to know people that we would not have had the chance to meet otherwise... Our efforts improved the physical appearance of the neighborhood and gave us the chance to take a break from our daily work and really put "quality in everything we do" by serving our community.” ~Ashley Robinson on helping at the Godman Guild “ Along the Alum Creek, we cut and removed Honeysuckle, which is a non-native invasive species… Afterwards, it was a great feeling to be able to look back along the trail and actually see the difference we had made. Walkers and joggers had even stopped along the path during the day to thank us or just talk to us about what we were doing.” ~ Chris Higbee on helping the Department of Parks & Recreation
