Our Mission

The Du Quoin Youth Club exists to provide the children and families of Du Quoin, Illinois with safe, structured, and affordable athletic programs, mentorship, and after-school activities — giving every young person in our community the guidance, trust, and values they need to succeed on and off the field.

Founded in 1971 in Du Quoin, Illinois and incorporated as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, the Du Quoin Youth Club has served the children and families of Perry County for over 50 years. What began as a small community effort to give local kids a place to play has grown into a multi-sport organization serving hundreds of youth each year through basketball, flag football, mentorship, tutoring, and the Annual Charity Ball fundraiser.
