Empowering Youth: The Impact of Boys & Girls Clubs of America

Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BGCA) is a leading youth development organization that serves 3.6 million young people annually. With over 1,140 independent local organizations and 5,000 locations nationwide, BGCA delivers life-changing programs that foster academic success, good character, citizenship, and healthy lifestyles. For 155 years, BGCA has supported youth—especially those in need—across cities, towns, public housing, Native lands, and U.S. military bases worldwide.

Our Approach

BGCA faced challenges managing campaigns through Salesforce Marketing Cloud due to its complexity and the need for significant time and resources. The integration between Salesforce modules was not seamless, requiring extra effort to maintain smooth operations.

To improve engagement across its vast network of clubs, BGCA needed a robust, real-time integration between Salesforce and Braze. Salesforce Sales Cloud served as the primary database for BGCA’s 5,000 clubs, with the Nonprofit Success Pack (NPSP) managing key data such as contacts and fundraising information. Synchronizing this data with Braze was essential to enable coordinated, effective outreach.

Execution

Massive Rocket, a Certified Level 4 Braze Partner, developed a bi-directional connector to synchronize data between Salesforce and Braze in real time. This integration ensured:

  • Seamless data flow with automatic updates for new fields.
  • Migration of historical data from Salesforce to Braze, including cleanup, formatting, and de-duplication to maintain accuracy.
  • A thorough testing phase followed by a smooth production rollout and a two-week hypercare period to ensure stability.

This solution addressed the complexity BGCA faced and streamlined campaign management across the organization.

Key Outcomes

  • Enabled real-time synchronization of vital contact and fundraising data between Salesforce and Braze.
  • Reduced manual effort and errors by automating data updates and historical data migration.
  • Improved coordination and effectiveness of outreach campaigns across 5,000 clubs nationwide.
  • Supported BGCA’s mission by enhancing engagement with club staff, donors, and philanthropists through timely, personalized communication.
