BLOOMINGTON – Jeff Baldwin, CEO of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Bloomington, has announced he will retire in December 2024.
Baldwin began his service to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Bloomington as Executive Director in 2006. During his 18 years of leadership, the Club has grown from having 2 Club locations serving 180 youth per day to now having 4 locations and serving over 700 kids per day across the organization. An additional 1700 youth are also served annually through Lemonade Day, the Father-Daughter Dance, Hoops Hysteria, and Camp Rock- all of which were established or enhanced under Jeff’s leadership.
In this role, Baldwin led an expansion project that fully renovated the Lincoln Street Club and constructed the Ferguson Crestmont Club and the Kenworthy Administration Center through an $11 million capital campaign. During the COVID crisis, the organization served youth within one month of the national shutdown, meeting the needs of families in the health industry and first responders. Under Baldwin’s leadership, the organization recently opened a new Boys & Girls Club in Owen County, meeting the needs of 100+ youth daily.
