BTS holds its AGM and welcomes new board members

Time flies when you're impacting youth!

On November 2, 2022, BTS held its AGM online. It feels like BTS just held its last AGM yesterday, but we checked, and it really has been a whole year!

Since our last meeting, we have been implementing the strategic plan, building capacity and systems and delivering programs to increase access to opportunities for low-income youth to dream big and realize their full potential. This has allowed us to encourage the physical, employment and life skill development of more than 2,500 participants.
