BBYO South Africa has been very busy over the past few months, bursting with innovative activities and unique offerings for our youth. We have celebrated almost 100 new prospective Teens becoming involved across Cape Town and Joburg, participating in social activities, outreach events, Shabbat dinners, overseas delegations to America and Israel, and more – all led by the Teens of our community!
We’re proud to highlight that out of over 100 applicants, 32 South African Teens will be joining us in Denver, Colorado, for International Convention 2025. International Convention is the largest gathering of Jewish Teens in the world – where around 4 000 like-minded Teens from over 60 countries come together to learn, network, and grow as young Jewish leaders. Special guests include leaders in politics, journalism, business and culture.
There’s so much to look forward to in the coming year, including the launch of Summer Programmes (which take place overseas in June/July of 2025).
Thank you to our Teens and parents for being part of this amazing BBYO community. Together we’re making The South African Jewish Community stronger and more vibrant than ever.
