The Teen Center will be a safe, welcoming space dedicated solely to teens in Ozark—offering them the only place in town designed specifically for their needs. With no other local facilities catering to this age group, the center will provide a positive environment where teens can gather, connect, and grow. Our programs will foster a sense of belonging and safety, ensuring that teens have a supportive space to learn, create, and thrive.

Our technology improvements at our Teen Center was made possible through a $100,000 donation from Bridgestone Retail Operations.
We were one of three Clubs nationwide to receive a technology grant from Bridgestone this year. Funds supported the creation of our Teen Center equipped with a podcast studio, music studio, driving simulator, computer lab, an IWall and additional tools for interactive learning.
The donation is part of the Bridgestone Driving Great Futures initiative, which has raised more than $25 million to help kids and teens gain access to Boys & Girls Clubs resources across the U.S. since 2015.
