Type of agency Boy & Girls Clubs of the Valley is recognized by the Internal Revenue Services as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. 4. Services provided Superstition Mountain Boys& Girls Club, located at 2805 S. Ironwood Drive, Apache Junction, 85120, is open to serve youth Monday through Friday from 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. when school is in session, with accommodation for early release days. When school is not in session, the Club is open for a full day from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Nutritious meals and snacks are provided. Youth are divided into age groupings and rotate through a variety of activities during the day, all focusing on one of the four Priority Outcomes areas. The Club day begins with a focus on Academic Success activities. During this time, youth can receive help with homework ortutoring in problematic subjects. Beginning with academics supports the school day's learning and develops a habit of completing work assignments prior to engaging in fun activities. Following this time, youth rotate through a variety of activities. In the Academic Success area, modules that focus on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Math) are offered to encourage interest in these areas in which many employment opportunities will exist foryoung people. Fifty percent of our program budget and Club time is spent in the Academic Success areas. Youth also can participate in individual or team sports as well as activities like cooking club to focus on developing Healthy Lifestyles habits to last a lifetime. In this priority area, we also focus on the connection between mental and physical health. Good Character& Leadership, through the examples set by Club staff and the relationships they develop with members, helps youth resist bullying and learn to treat everyone with respect. As youth age, they have opportunities to assume leadership roles and provide guidance to younger Club members. Members also engage in volunteer activities out in the community, further demonstrating their development of these desirable traits. Career Pathways & Workforce Readiness activities helpyouth explore their interests and talents and discover careers that match those attributes. Especially as they progress toward the high school years, basic employment skills, such as building a resume and interviewing for success are learned. Older youth can participate in job shadowing and paid internships to gain further experience. 5. Provide target population and demographic information on your current clientele to include percentage located within the City of Apache Junction. The Superstition Mountain Club, for FY25-26, will serve 350 members. Those served are between the ages of 5 and 18.

Of the 350 youth served at the Superstition Mountain Club, 200 (57%) are residents of Apache Junction, with the balance coming from nearby communities. They are attending the Superstition Mountain Club primarily because of its proximity to parents'/guardians' employment. 6.

Project/Service Description: Please describe the proposed projec0service to be funded. Please address the following: 1. Who will be served? BGCAZ will provide services to any youth, ages 5 to 18, and their families. 2. How will this project serve Apache Junction proper residents? The youth of Apache Junction are served with quality youth development programs that keep them in school,tracking toward on-time high school graduation, and with a post-secondary plan in place. Additionally, youth are safe from the temptations of unsupervised time, reducing the potential burden on law enforcement. BGCAZ's fees are kept low to reduce the financial burden of childcare costs for low-to moderate-income families. If families are unable to afford our low fees, thanks to the philanthropic supportwe receive, BGCAZ can waive fees to ensure families are able to receive services. We have a commitment to never turn anyone away. Finally, the entire community receives benefit from BGCAZ services. A recent independent study, conducted by the Seidman Institute of the W.P. Carey Business School at Arizona State University, found that for every $1 invested in BGCAZ, $15.60 in social benefit is returned. 3. What services will be provided? BGCAZ provides evidence-informed, out-of-school-time youth development programming for youth ages 5 to 18. Services are available after school during the school year, with accommodation for any early release days, as well as over school breaks in a full-day schedule. Programming concentrates on the four Priority Outcomes as established by Boys & Girls Clubs of America, which are: 1)Academic Success, 2) Healthy Lifestyles, 3) Good Character& Leadership, and 4) Career Pathways & Workforce Readiness. 4. What are the benefits? Ultimately, BGCAZ strives to see youth grow into productive, caring, responsible members of the community.

The community of Apache Junction benefits through a positive return on investment. 5. Provide a timeline and who is responsible.

What is the projec0service and agency goals? Boys & Girls Clubs of the Valley uses the results from the annual Boys & Girls Clubs of America's National Youth Outcomes Initiatives survey to set goals specific to each Club and for BGCAZ as a whole, coupled with a strategic plan regularly established by the Board of Directors and senior leadership. In these ways, we strive for continuous quality improvement of program services. Organizationally, we have set a goal for an annual growth factor of 10% of Club members through increased marketing efforts, as well as seeking opportunities to provide services in new communities and locations. In terms of goals for the youth served, BGCAZ has set the following principal outcome targets. • By June 30, 2026, 95% of Club members will indicate they are on grade level for their age as demonstrated by youth/caregiver self-report. • By June 30, 2026, 90% of Club members will indicate their intent to graduate high school as determined by responses to prompts on the National Youth Outcomes Initiatives survey conducted annually. • By Jue 30, 2026, 90% of Club members will report that they understand how their emotions influence their actions as determined by responses to prompts on the National Youth Outcomes Initiatives Survey conducted annually. The National Youth Outcomes Initiatives Survey is an anonymous survey conducted annually each spring by Boys & Girls Clubs of America. Youth are asked to respond to a wide variety of prompts that assess theirfull Club experience. Data is collected by the national organization. Each summer, BGCAZ receives results reports for each individual Club as well as the organization as a whole. These results help guide our continuous quality improvement goals set for each Club and organization wide. 10.How and will you sustain this project after the agreement has ended?
