You can find the cost of after-school programs in your city or county budget. It's usually a line item and sometimes it has a strange name. You can contact your county's budget director and they are usually upfront about the costs of such programs. As for the BCG, when you donate to the charity, they send you a budget document each year explaining their costs and expenses, how many students they serve etc. Because the BCG gets a lot of volunteers (as well as community service from juveniles), it saves a lot of money in ways that a local school couldn't.The graduation rate of students who go to the BCG is higher than those who don't. Our local BCG uses graduation rates and crime as metrics of success.</blockquote>
