Recently, we shared with you the ways that BGC makes kids feel SEEN and HEARD for who they really are. We shared that when kids have a safe place to belong, great things happen for each and every one of them. But what does that look like as they grow up at Club?
At BGC, kids spend time developing the skills they need to grow into AMAZING adults! Skills like healthy living habits, a lifelong love for learning, and the ability to have healthy, long lasting relationships.
So, when kids come to Club MORE often and for MORE of their childhoods, our impact in their lives is greater. Over their time at BGC, they come to believe in (just like we do!) what makes them amazing.
Kayla, Helmand, Ruth, and Nathan started attending Club when they were younger, and stayed throughout their adolescence to become volunteers, and then staff. Listen to them share about the impact BGC had in their lives over time (spoiler alert – it’s pretty incredible!).

When AMAZING friends like our #BGCBesties at @FortisBC support our Learn On program, MORE kids can access a safe space for homework support, tutoring, mentoring and socializing with friends. That’s pretty awesome. Thank you @FortisBC! #OpportunityChangesEverything #UnbelievableImpact
At BGC, we know that every kid is amazing. Not just that they would be or could be if their circumstances were different. When we talk about the work that we do, we believe strongly in focusing on ALL of the great things that happen for kids and youth in our Clubs. Instead of labelling kids as “at-risk,” we share the incredible, positive changes that we see in kids throughout their time at Club and the unbelievable impact that being a Club kid has on their lives as they grow up. Instead of focusing on the tough things that kids and youth go through, we share the ways that Club encourages kids to be who they REALLY are!
As our former Club kids turned staff members say: BGC is a GREAT place to be. 💚
