Every girl has the right to feel safe at home, in her relationships and in her community.
But too many are living in fear of someone they should be able to trust.
This is a violation of their rights. We must protect girls from all forms of violence. Now.

🧡 Thank you Hinterland Nature Coop for hosting us this Truth and Reconciliation Day.
Our Gilbert Park Club kids had the chance to smudge, learn about living off the land, and explore the importance of our relationship with Mother Earth. 🌍✨
Would you eat them in a Club?
Would you eat them with some grub?
Inspired by Dr. Seuss’ Green Eggs and Ham, our junior chefs flipped the script and cooked up green pancakes! A creative (and tasty!) way to mix literacy, imagination, and kitchen skills.
All this week, BGC Winnipeg staff are taking part in lunch and learns for Truth and Reconciliation Week.
Through learning, reflection, and dialogue, we continue our commitment to understanding the truth and honouring Survivors.

Inspiring future leaders! Our CEO Ron Brown met with the 2025–2026 Youth Recreation Activity Worker (YRAW) class to share wisdom and motivation as they begin this important journey.
This program prepares youth to become mentors, role models, and recreation leaders in their communities.
Kids need a third place. A place beyond home and school. At BGC Clubs kids can find a mentor, a caring adult, a meal, a place to play and belong. #OpportunityChangesEverything
