Toyota

Boys & Girls Clubs of America and Toyota believe in making life easier for those who need us most and helping young people chart a path to a great future.

Life-changing Experiences

Since 2007, Toyota has partnered with Boys & Girls Clubs of America to provide life-changing experiences for Club members, awarding more than $2.4 million in academic scholarships and supporting signature initiatives including Workforce Readiness and Youth of the Year.

Inspiring the Next Generation of Innovators, Thinkers and Leaders

As a founding sponsor of BGCA’s Workforce Readiness Strategy, Toyota’s investment supports essential skill development, career exploration and work-based learning opportunities for Club youth. The partnership is helping close the job-readiness gap by preparing youth for success in their first job and developing a plan to pursue the career of their dreams.

Additionally, Toyota is providing career exploration opportunities through its program, T-TEN (Technician Training Education Network), a partnership of community colleges, vocational schools and Toyota and Lexus dealerships to provide industry-leading automotive technician training. Toyota and BGCA are working to adapt a version of the program focused on automotive career exploration for Boys & Girls Clubs and community partners.

Youth of the Year

As a Signature Sponsor of Youth of the Year, Toyota is committed to partnering with BGCA to ensure Boys & Girls Clubs provide life-enhancing opportunities for kids and teens to explore, develop and apply essential skills they need to be successful. Youth of the Year representatives are the workforce leaders, innovators and problem-solvers of tomorrow. In addition to sponsoring Youth of the Year, Toyota has provided each National Youth of the Year with a new Toyota Corolla since 2010, as well as financial support to offset the costs of owning a car.
