The Opportunity

Boys & Girls Clubs of Metropolitan Baltimore (BGCMB) received an incredible philanthropic commitment that enabled them to prepare for and launch a major campaign to build additional clubs and transform the organization.

How Carter Helped

Carter began working with BGCMB in 2022 to complete a campaign planning study to build a campaign around this extraordinary opportunity. Recognizing that the development program needed to be strengthened in order to maximize campaign results, Carter also conducted an audit of the organization’s internal development function. BGCMB subsequently reengaged Carter to provide guidance on the implementation of audit recommendations as well as campaign counsel.

The Results

BGCMB achieved its ambitious campaign goal of $44 million, allowing the organization to: construct a brand-new 30,000-sq-ft recreational facility and club in West Baltimore, the Baltimore Ravens Boys & Girls Club at Hilton Recreation Center; plan a new club on the Eastern Shore set to open in Fall 2026 to serve 1,500+ youth; and fund their first-ever endowment.

“Working with Carter has been a game-changer for BGCMB. Their strategic guidance, deep expertise, and collaborative approach have helped us transform our campaign vision into real, measurable impact for the youth we serve. We love working with Carter because they truly understand our mission and help us achieve our boldest goals for the communities we serve.”
