The Boys & Girls Club of the Eastern Panhandle has one goal: to provide young people ages 6 – 18 in Berkeley, Jefferson, and Morgan counties with the skills, resources, and opportunities that will help them to reach their full potential as productive, responsible, and caring citizens.
We can’t do that alone. We need community partners like you to invest your resources in our kids. When you give your time, talents, and treasure to the Club, you are creating a brighter future for our kids AND you are showing them that you believe in them.
When you partner with us, we want to let the world know that you care, why you care, and how important your contributions to the Club are.

Martinsburg, WV
From a parking lot near the City Police Station, the Martinsburg-Berkeley County Club has grown into one of the largest clubs in WV, serving over 700 members each year. Initially financed by passing the hat between the founders, coupled with partial funding by Austin Cummings, the Boys Club, as it was known, was chartered in 1965.
​
Boxing, basketball and swimming pulled in teens boys from the city and prevented them from getting into trouble. In 1975, the club relocated to 105 West John Street, it's current location. From Jack Beaver's basketball teams, "The, United, Givers, and Fund," developed a basketball program that would give birth to an Olympian, Vickie Bullett. Scott Nagley was the first of many of Mr. Murphy's photography students to win the Boys & Girls Club National Image Makers Annual Photography Contest.
​
​Over the last fifty years, thousands of youth have walked through the halls of the Martinsburg-Berkeley County Boys & Girls Club. Alumni include professional boxer, Noah "Dukie" Green, former professional baseball player, Scottie Bullet, City Councilman, Don Anderson, and State Senator, John Unger. Many of the Alumni have gone onto have great futures.
What kids are saying:
I come to the Club to see staff, and some of them are like family to me. When I started last year I was very quiet and I didn’t talk to anyone and I always had my hood up because I was insecure about how I looked. Coming to the club has improved my social life and I talk to a lot more people now. I don’t wear my hood up anymore and I feel more confident talking to my friends. If I didn’t come to the Club I would just go home and be on my phone or play video games all day, the Club gives me other things to do instead of sitting at home alone on my phone. I started coming so I can hang out with one of my friends, but now I want to come to see staff and have something to do when I’m not in school.
