Boys & Girls Clubs of Bellevue

We're lucky to have advocates like Tana Senn supporting and uplifting our youth. Sophia takes the stage today as a finalist for Washington State Youth of the Year and our BGCB community will be cheering her on every step of the way!

We are excited to see the partnership between these two incredible organizations come to life! Both have been long-time Club supporters, and we are grateful to our board members and friends connected to these two iconic brands. Tridents up!

Club teens took on the state capitol this week to raise their voices on issues important to them, with an emphasis on mental health advocacy. We of course loved seeing our very own Board member, Secretary Tana Senn, along with Representatives, Janice Zahn, Osman Salahuddin, & My-Linh Thai.

We are excited to unveil the Lake Hills Community Room, delivered by Amazon!   This space will serve as a hub for creativity, connection, and community. We look forward to seeing the positive impact this room will have on those who call Lake Hills home and beyond.   A huge thank you to Pearl Leung, Keri Pravitz and Amazon for their support in helping us continue to provide safe, welcoming spaces for our youth and community to thrive. 

Three remarkable teens and a junior candidate took the stage at our 2025 Youth of the Year event, sharing powerful stories of advocacy, strength, and resilience in front of a room full of community members, family, friends, judges, and mentors.    After weeks of preparation and mentorship, each teen delivered speeches that showcased the impact the Club has had on their lives.    We are proud to announce Sophia as our 2025 Youth of the Year! Next stop: the state competition, where we’ll all be cheering her on. A huge thank you to our judges—Matt Rossmeissl, Angela Johnson, CCP, SPHR, and Anatoliy Nazariya—and incredible mentors—Morela Hernandez, Jennifer Liu, and Pete Parsons—whose guidance and support was invaluable to our teens.

All of YOU have a place in our 2024 Wrapped. Every moment of kindness, generosity, and support is shaping the lives of the youth who need us most.    Thank you for changing lives with us. Let's make 2025 our most meaningful year yet.

We are less than one week away from our 2025 Youth of the Year event! Three of our teens will be joined by a room of community supporters and peers to share their powerful stories on how the Club has shaped their lives. Following, we will announce the Youth of the Year finalist who will represent Bellevue at the state competition! It's not to late to join us on Feb. 5th, starting at 5:30pm at our Downtown Clubhouse. Email development@bgcbellevue.org to secure your spot!

It is almost time for our teen Jivoni to head to Super Bowl LIX!!! The excitement hasn't stopped as we gear up to send Bellevue's Champion of Change to New Orleans. Follow along to see what's in store!

We are so grateful for our community partners that join us for these special celebrations. The support is tangible. We feel it, our families feel it, and most importantly, our youth feel it. Thank you for joining us in making a positive impact!

We are honored to announce that T & T Supermarket, part of the largest retailer in Canada, has made us their first U.S. nonprofit partner.   During a Lunar New Year celebration at our Jing Mei Elementary Clubhouse, we were joined by T&T Supermarket's CEO Tina Lee, her incredible team, and Bellevue's Mayor Dr. Lynne Robinson to honor the cultural diversity we share in our Clubhouses.   T&T Supermarket recently opened their first U.S. store in Bellevue, and we are grateful that before their doors even opened, they felt our impact, and wanted to be a part of it.
