The Challenge
Founded in 1954, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Oxnard and Port Hueneme (BGCOP) provides a safe, positive place for youth during non-school hours through its main location and over 20 satellite facilities.
BGCOP helps its young patrons reach their fullest potential by focusing on “the arts, education, character and leadership development, health and recreation.”
A successful $5M fundraising campaign along with an unrestricted $3.2M donation from MacKenzie Scott gave BGCOP the funds they needed to improve their programmatic work and their board’s way of working.
To make the most of these transformational gifts, BGCOP needed a strategic plan to get things moving. But due to lean team capacity brought on by Covid-19, that plan hadn’t been developed.
