About Us
BBYO is the leading pluralistic Jewish teen movement aspiring to involve more Jewish teens in more meaningful Jewish experiences. For more than 90 years, BBYO‘s leadership programs the Aleph Zadik Aleph (AZA, high school fraternity) and the B’nai B’rith Girls (BBG, high school sorority) have been providing exceptional leadership programs and identity enrichment experiences, shaping the confidence and character of more than 400,000 alumni who are among the most prominent figures in business, politics, academia, the arts and Jewish communal life.
Now, BBYO’s network of Jewish teens, alumni, parents, volunteers and philanthropists serves as the Jewish community’s most valuable platform for delivering to the post Bar/Bat Mitzvah audience fun, meaningful and affordable experiences. With year-round activities in hundreds of local communities and inspiring world-wide travel experiences, BBYO’s broad program menu enables teens to explore areas of leadership, service, civic engagement, Israel education and Jewish values.

Vancouver teens joined thousands of peers, educators, business leaders and philanthropists from around the world at BBYO’s International Convention (IC) 2025 in Denver, Colo., Feb. 12-17. Levi Moskovitz, a student at King David High School, was elected as BBYO’s international teen treasurer (grand aleph gizbor) for the 2025-26 term. He is the only Canadian on the BBYO international board, which represents 70,000 teens from 64 different countries.

Kibbitz and Cookies with Bruce Howitt
This month’s topic is: AUSTRALIA AND THE JEWISH PEOPLE 1788-2025
Over a thousand or more people of Jewish descent are estimated to have been sent to Australia as convicts from 1788-1848. 14 Jews both men and women arrived on The First Fleet in 1788. Many of the descendants of these transportees became eminent jurists, politicians, soldiers and hugely successful entrepreneurs. The history of the Jewish people in Australia is one of triumph and determination against extreme hardship and difficulties. Join us for this fascinating conversation!
Free to attend. Registration required.
