What We Do

What We Do

Each year, more than 2,600 young people from across Mercer County participate in our programs. We proudly serve youth from over 20 area schools, including teen members from five local high schools. Our teen programs include college and career preparation, paid internships, mentorship opportunities, and guidance in developing post high school pathways.

During the summer, more than 700 children and teens enjoy a wide range of activities including swimming, art, sports, dance, STEM, and exciting field trips. Safety is always our top priority in everything we do. For over 85 years, we have been inspiring Great Futures, and with your support, we can continue to do so for many years to come.
