Youth of the Year is Boys & Girls Clubs’ year-round character and leadership recognition program, a signature effort to foster a new generation of leaders. Each Club nominates members aged 14-18 who demonstrate academic achievement, leadership skills, and service to the community. Our members compete to represent our organization of the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Gulf Coast Youth of the Year. These teens are working hard, investing in themselves, and setting their sights on achieving a GREAT FUTURE. Our BGCGC Youth of the Year has the opportunity to compete at the State level and possibly beyond!
