We know that when we engage youth, we make a big impact on their lives. As an organization, we are committed to creating spaces and opportunities that support youth to reach their potential.
Youth of the Year
For youth aged 15 – 21
Youth of the Year is a national initiative celebrating youth leadership and achievement at BGC Clubs across Canada. Youth of the Year aims to foster strong BGC ambassadors and build capacity for Clubs to support more youth leaders in their communities. Six outstanding youth will win the title of Regional or National Youth of the Year, along with scholarship funds, laptops, prize packs, and media and leadership training to prepare them as BGC ambassadors for the next two years.
Generously supported by
National Youth Council
The BGC Canada National Youth Council (NYC) is committed to providing representation for BGC youth, reflecting issues and goals from across the country, and ensuring youth input into national initiatives and activities. NYC members serve as ambassadors and role models for other children and youth throughout the organization, positively influence decision-making on issues related to young people, and plan a national youth forum every two years.
