In 2026, Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Tampa Bay proudly celebrates 100 years of impact across our community. Since the first Club opened its doors in 1926, the organization has grown into a trusted leader in youth development, helping generations of young people succeed in the classroom, the workplace, and life through life-changing programs, mentorship, and opportunity.

This Centennial year is more than a celebration of the past, it’s a commitment to the future. It honors a century of service while inviting the community to help shape the next 100 years by ensuring young people have access to the experiences, support, and pathways they need to become future-ready.

To officially kick off the Centennial, landmarks across Greater Tampa Bay will light up blue on January 9, marking a city-wide moment of celebration and unity in honor of the impact Boys & Girls Clubs has made and will continue to make across the region.

Community members are also invited to support this milestone by joining the 1926 Club, a monthly giving community that provides consistent, reliable support for programs that empower youth and strengthen our region. Together, we’re celebrating 100 years of impact, and investing in the next century of opportunity.
