Dear partners and friends:
Every day at Boys and Girls Clubs of the Peninsula
(BGCP), we challenge our members to stretch, to
grow, and to imagine the possibilities their futures
may hold. And we expect no less from ourselves.
As an organization we continually ask: “How can
we continue to evolve to best meet the needs of
our community’s most underserved children?”
BGCp is growing every day. In 2012 BGCP
continued to close the opportunity gap. We grew
in both breadth and depth serving more children
and expanding and improving programs. We
delivered on the promise to help our members
develop the academic and life skills they need to
graduate high school, prepared for college or
career. In an area where 50% of children drop out
of high school, we are significantly helping our
members develop a sense of purpose and gradu-
ate with a plan.
At our nine sites in East Palo Alto, Redwood City
and eastern Menlo Park, BGCP provided 1700
children with consistent mentorship, academic
instruction, enrichment programs and a safe,
inspiring place to learn and grow.
Vital to our expanding impact is our continued evo-
lution from an after-school provider to an extended
learning day partner. BGCP has expanded our
collaborations with area schools and families. We
deepened our relationships with Ravenswood City,
Redwood City and Sequoia Union school districts
and with Taft, Belle Haven, Brentwood, Hoover,
McNair, and Menlo-Atherton schools. These school-
based partnerships continue to get stronger each
year and the demand continues. By providing
elementary through high school students with on-
site academic and enrichment opportunities, and
engaging parents in their children’s education, we
strengthen the fabric of the communities we serve.
For the first time ever, we added a full-time staff
member at Menlo-Atherton High School to focus
on the growing needs of our high school students.

from our
bOard anD execUTive DiReCtOr
We are thrilled to report that our summer learning
academy was stronger than ever. We expanded our
model from serving 400 to 800 students. Working
with the Sobrato Family Foundation, Ravenswood
Education Foundation, schools and community-
based organizations, we provided a quality and
targeted summer learning experience that increased
summer learning hours and academic instruction.
For the first time ever, we had a dedicated teen
center with academic programming and a strong
career exposure track.
In 2012 we strengthened our organization’s
capacity and infrastructure by creating key roles
in curriculum, program strategy and development,
as well as essential school site and clubhouse
program positions. More mentors and volunteers
committed time to our children than ever before.
Thanks to our partnerships with schools and school
districts, and to all of the foundations, corporations,
and individuals who support our work, we had a very
3
successful year. All of us at BGCP, and especially
the children you help serve, want you to know that
your support is vital and hugely appreciated.
We look forward to 2013. And we promise to
continue our commitment to provide the at-risk
youth of our community with the academic and
life skills they need to graduate from high school
ready for college or career.
With gratitude,
Anni Gandolfo, Board Chair

BGCp is opportunity. For our area’s most underserved youth, from Kinder-
garten through high school, it’s dance, digital arts and poetry. It’s tutoring
and mentorship and academic rigor. It’s trust between caring adults and
kids who need someone to turn to. It’s inspiration. And a safe haven.
At our clubs, school sites and summer academies, possibilities take
shape. Children realize what creative, strong, intelligent individuals they
are. They receive the opportunities and support so many of us take for
granted. Opportunities which for them, when given, can be a doorway
to their dreams.

Even in the heart of Silicon Valley, we are facing a dropout crisis. BGCP is
taking action to reverse this crisis now.
Children in our poorest neighborhoods don’t lack intelligence.They don’t
lack creativity, curiosity, or desire. What they lack is opportunity. And as
long as the opportunity gap exists, the achievement gap will too.
We implement those proven social and academic interventions that most
impact a child’s success in school and in life. For 1700 children in our
area’s most challenged neighborhoods, our summer academies, three
clubhouses and six school sites provide:

With patience and tenacity, BGCP tends to the needs of the entire child:
academic, physical, social, and emotional, so he or she can thrive.
The current crisis in K-12 education
is the civil rights issue of our time.
If I can look at your zip code and tell
if your child is going to get a good
education - is the American dream
still possible? Since our founding,
education has been the most impor-
tant mechanism used by our children
to change their circumstances and
achieve their dreams. BGCP only
furthers those dreams for our chil-
dren by providing mentors, opportu-
nities, and a safe place for children
to learn and grow. As a country, we
must embrace this crisis, demand
change, and support entities like
BGCP that are working to make a
difference in the lives of our children.

BGCP is a place for children to belong. It’s a road for them to walk,
hand-in-hand, with adults who mentor, who challenge, who inspire,
and who harness potential. We show young people that they are
worthy and capable. Under BGCP’s consistent care our members
come to understand that they are not alone, but surrounded by peers
and adults who support their success, and who will stand by them
as they progress towards a bright future.

Mentorship is the critical thread that runs through all the opportunities
BGCP provides. We believe that these long term, one-on-one relationships
between children and caring adults are what make the difference in a child’s
transformation. These personal ties instill a deep sense of belonging, and
are instrumental in keeping kids connected, confident and on track.
Ms. Chillin’ is like my second mom. She’s someone I can trust, and
who cares about me. She helps me with schoolwork and with life.
She helped me discover my hidden talent for building.
When I first came to the club I was a kid who really didn’t know what
I wanted to do or what I wanted to be. I cared about school, but it
wasn’t a big priority. Now for me education comes before anything in
life. Getting a scholarship to college is my first priority; I want to be
an engineer. I know now education can take you places.

“Before anything it’s about building one-on-one relationships. Then trying to find that x-factor. That special innate talent that is unique to every child. And if you can find it and develop it, they can take off.”
Cherie Nelson-Kabba, or Ms. Chillin’, BGCP mentor
“At BGCP, we start talking with kids about college and careers in Kindergarten. We want to paint a picture of a future that is different than what they see around them.”

BGCP inspires a vision for the future. We show children a way forward.
At each step in a young person’s development, BGCP is there to provide
guidance, present possibilities and ignite passions. Then together, we
develop the skills children need to succeed in school, career, and life.
nancy orocio and College Bound
BGCP means family. It’s the place where I grew as a scholar, as a
young lady, and as a passionate leader.
Years before I started thinking about college, BGCP’s College Bound
Program planted the seed; “You’re going to college. This is what it
looks like.” They exposed us to different careers, took us on college
tours and made sure I stayed on track.
According to statistics, coming from my neighborhood, I shouldn’t
be in college. But thanks to my parents, BGCP, and my mentor Tracy
Koon, I’m now a sophomore at Santa Clara University studying
Political Science. Tracy guided me through the whole process. Even
now she plays such an important part in my life. She is an advisor
and a friend. I can’t stress enough how comforting it is to know I’m
not alone, and that I’ll always have Tracy by my side.

Self-expression and empowerment are at the core of BGCp’s visual
and performance arts programs. At our three digital arts studios, young
people discover themselves, and a sense of purpose. They develop crit-
ical skills applicable to academic and professional achievement. In our
Spoken Word program members create through performance art, poetry,
essays and video projects. BGCP members ha college admis-
sions and national honors because of their work in a variety of media.
They are just blessed with talent. Our job is to encourage them,
to make them feel empowered to not just take on life’s challenges
as they come, but to go out there and challenge life.

Winner of the 2012 Intel/American Promise Alliance Award
Adobe and Microsoft donated state-of-the-art digital arts facilities to BGCP
and its members, because they know what we know. When we ignite a
young person’s passions, and support them with tangible skills, we
provide a path.
The day before my brother got shot, I promised him that I was going
to be the person that he always wanted me to be. My mentor at BGCP
is like my brother now. He helped me find my passion for music, and
to realize how important school is. I’m getting straight As now and
plan to go to college and have a career in the music industry. The
Adobe Youth Voices Academy gives us the skills for our future, and
allows us to create with purpose. I wish my brother could see me now.

“Creating art allows us to turn what’s going on inside, and what we see around us, into something positive. Our videos and songs talk about anti-violence, being a role model in your community, and amidst all the negativity, how to be that positive spark.”

I Solemnly Promise...
In high school...I...believe I can change the world...with all my might
In high school...I...believe I can change the world starting tonight
In high school...I...believe I can change the world despite
Despite what they print in the news
In spite of excuses I could have used
As students...we are learning to choose...
And today we choose
to invoke change...to enthuse
All youth...to win and not to lose
By making a vow...to never drop out of high school
Spoken Word excerpt, From award winning performance piece and video
created and performed by BGCP members, East Palo Alto Clubhouse
Our six school-based partnerships in three local districts broaden BGCP’s
impact. They provide kindergarten through 12th grade students on-site
extended learning days filled with academic support, tutoring, mentorship
and enrichment opportunities.
Our parent education courses, and increased parental involvement, bolster
a child’s educational success.
Working together, these collaborations strengthen the families and com-
munities we serve.
the Serrato Family on How BGCp Impacts Family and Community
When Vice President Joe Biden and Senator Barbara Boxer came to
BGCP to see the program, Joe Biden asked my daughter, Angela, what
she wanted to be when she grew up. She said, “I want to be the Presi-
dent.” And I thought, “This is my daughter. She thinks big; and I like it.”
Angela says she wants to go to Notre Dame University. I tell her
she can go wherever she wants if she works hard. And so I’m thankful
BGCP is helping her. They help with her studies, dance, violin, music,
art. She has mentors and tutors. The kids in our community get so
many opportunities at BGCP.

On January 16th our house burned to the ground. We got so much
support from BGCP; it’s like a big family. Angela’s grades have
improved a lot thanks to BGCP. And their parent education courses
help me to be the best father I can be. We volunteer whenever
we can because they give us so much. BGCP is bringing a lot of
opportunity to the community and giving kids a chance. I think
if there were more programs like BGCP, then all the kids in the
United States could succeed. When we work together, we make
a difference for the future.
Ricardo Serrato
“I will be the first one in my whole entire family to go to University.
So that will be such a dream come true. BGCP helps everybody in
our neighborhood: our teachers, our principal, our staff, and the
students and parents too.”
Angela Serrato, 5th grader

“The extended learning day provides invaluable benefits to our teachers, children, and families. Through BGCP, students are provided a safe space, with caring mentors, in which they can continue learning and growing.”

Unlike many youth development programs, BGCP does not select the
members it serves. We are there for every child...whatever their
challenges, whatever their needs. We believe all young people can
grow to be self-sufficient, productive adults, and we stand by them all.
