The Salesian Boys’ and Girls’ Club provides a safe, affordable place for kids and teens in the greater North Beach, Russian Hill and Chinatown communities and has been offering after school activities, enrichment programs and services to San Francisco youth for over a century. Camp Grigio is a day camp offered to youth not yet old enough to join the Club, for ages 3–8. Summers at the Club include field trips, sleep away camp, and days spent at the Club, and the Joe Passanisi Memorial Bocce Tournament & Picnic is a fundraiser event that supports the Salesian Boys’ & Girls’ Club. A testimonial from former San Francisco Mayor London Breed states, “For a Century, this Club has been a safe place for children to channel their energy into athletic, educational, cultural, artistic and career building programs.”
