  Honoring and celebrating National Boys and Girls Club Week of 2025.

Whereas the young people of the United States are the leaders of tomorrow;
Whereas many young people seek out-of-school programming as a safe place to 
        connect with caring staff that help young people achieve their full 
        potential;
Whereas there are over 5,500 Boys and Girls Clubs of America in 50 States, 
        Washington, DC, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, the United States Virgin 
        Islands, and United States military bases around the world, that serve 
        more than 3,300,000 young people annually through more than 2,700 
        school-based clubs, in rural, urban, suburban communities and 
        partnerships with over 250 Native Tribal communities;
Whereas the Boys and Girls Clubs of America do whatever it takes to ensure every 
        young person in the United States has the skills needed to graduate high 
        school and be well-prepared for life and work;
Whereas, through programs that encourage career readiness, leadership 
        development, STEM skills, academic achievement, life skills, financial 
        literacy, and civics education, the Boys and Girls Clubs of America help 
        youth develop the skills needed to succeed in the economy; and
Whereas the Boys and Girls Clubs of America, with 5,500 Boys and Girls Clubs of 
        America and millions of students and alumni nationwide, will celebrate 
        the week of June 23 through June 27, 2025, as National Boys and Girls 
        Club Week: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) calls on the people of the United States to celebrate 
        National Boys and Girls Club Week; and
            (2) encourages Americans to recognize and commend the Boys 
        and Girls Clubs of America for building great futures for youth 
        in communities throughout the United States.
