History and Leadership
Our History and Leadership
Boys & Girls Club of Walker County, Inc. is designated as a 501(c)(3) public charity by the Internal Revenue Service. We began operating in Huntsville, Texas in February 2003.
We operate with funding and in-kind support from our community partners -- City of Huntsville, Walker County and Huntsville Independent School District -- and hundreds of private donors.
We are governed by a full-time Executive Director and a Board of Directors who are committed volunteers from Walker County.
