Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro South's President's Council is a group of distinguished advisors from diverse professional and personal backgrounds who volunteer their time to provide counsel to the President & Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors on a broad range of issues relating to the strategic direction of the organization, including the development of innovative programs and services, fundraising and community engagement, administration and finance, governance, and other topics important to our Clubs. 

The council meets twice annually, in the Fall and the Spring, to review progress made towards achieving the goals outlined in the strategic plan and to discuss the long-term vision of BGCMS. Individuals are appointed to the President's Council by the President & CEO and Board Chair in recognition of their visionary leadership.
