Since the the first New Hampshire Club opened its doors in Manchester in 1906, Boys & Girls Clubs have been serving our state's young people, especially those who need us most. Today seven Clubs are headquartered in: Concord, Derry, Lakes Region, Manchester, Nashua, Salem and Souhegan Valley (Milford). Boys & Girls Clubs also serve the North Country through the Littleton/Lisbon Club, administered under the guidance of the Manchester Club.
