Advance Mississippi
Advance Mississippi was born of Boys & Girls Clubs of America’s (BGCA) realization that rural Clubs were struggling to keep their doors open and provide quality service in some of our nation’s neediest communities. In 2014, a team of BGCA Operations Development staff proposed to BGCA’s Board of Governors that they create a focused initiative to address rural America’s Clubs. The identified pathways to success were through increasing diversified funding and increasing the number of youth served while building innovative operating models that are sustainable.
