Mission 

 

“The mission of the Boys & Girls Club of Hill County is to inspire and enable all young people in our community to realize their full potential and create responsible, caring, and productive citizens”

 

History

 

The Boys & Girls Club of Hillsboro Texas, Inc., was founded in 1996 by Mr. David Mojica & Mr. Ted Whitley and with a dedicated group of volunteers. The Articles of Incorporation were amended in September of 2007 to read the Boys & Girls Club of Hill County Texas, Inc. to better represent the cross section of children served. 

 

The Club's first President, 10th Court of Appeals Judge A. Lee Harris, remarked the following...

 

 "Our children need additional opportunities within a structured environment. During my years in Hill County, Juvenile Delinquency has risen dramatically. Many factors contribute to this, but idleness and lack of guidance certainly contribute to the list. All of us hope that by providing a Boys & Girls Club setting our youth will be steered toward constructive endeavors that better prepare them for the future".
 

On January 1, 2026, the Boys & Girls Club of Hill County officially merged with the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Tarrant County (BGCGTC), joining the broader BGCGTC network as the Marc & Sarah Young Branch in Hillsboro. This merger expands access for Hill County youth to BGCGTC’s programs and resources, including the Mobile Clubhouse and Blue Door Kitchen initiatives, while maintaining the Club’s strong local presence and community connections. The integration preserves local leadership and staff positions and introduces new opportunities for volunteers and youth, ensuring a sustainable future for the Club and the children it serves.
