Our Mission

To provide safe supportive spaces and positive mentoring relationships where young people experience new opportunities and develop confidence and skills for life.

Our Vision

All young people discover and achieve their full potential.

Core Values

In the Clubs work with children, youth, families and the community we share with our national parent organization, the BGC Canada, a set of core values that guide both our long-term strategic direction, as well as our day-to-day operations and interactions. These core values, (below) are the standard by which all BGC services are measured.

Inclusion & Opportunity

We strive to offer children and youth from all economic, cultural and social backgrounds access to the resources, supports and opportunities that will enable them to overcome barriers and achieve their positive potential in life.

Respect & Belonging

We provide a safe, supportive place, where every child is listened to, treated with respect and valued in an environment of inclusion and acceptance. Our staff and volunteers model honesty, fair play, positive attitude, cooperation and respect for self and others.

Empowerment

We believe all young people can grow into responsible, contributing and self-reliant members of society. Children and youth are at the centre of everything we do. Through adventure, play and discovery, we encourage and empower them to develop healthy lifestyles, a life-long passion for learning, leadership and life skills and a sense of social responsibility.

Collaboration

We work together with families and volunteers in each community, in partnership with the public and private sector, to create healthy community solutions to providing children and youth with what they need for optimal development.

Speaking Out

We speak out on behalf of children, youth and their families to reduce disadvantage, enhance their lives and enable their voices and ideas to be heard.
