"L'dor V'dor"- From generation to generation
Tradition -n.-"that which is handed down or passed on"
 
BBYO is a youth led, world wide organization which provides opportunities for Jewish youth to develop their leadership skills, a thriving jewish identity, and personal development.
 

Our Goals and Objectives:
  • To fulfill knowledge and appreciation for Jewish religion and culture by exploring every aspect
  • To provide leadership opportunities, capabilities, and develop leadership skills for the Jewish youth
  • To encourage involvement and volunteering throughout B'nai Brith and all of the community
  • "Tefilah, Tzedakah, Gimilut Chassadim"- to thrive in prayer, charity, and acts of loving kindness
  • To develop intrest and commitment to the state of Israel
  • And of course, to provide the opportunity to develop a positive self-image, and make friendships of a lifetime with fellow Jews.

L'dor V'dor- Traditions!
  • Opening Rituals- all business meetings will begin with the banging of the gavel, reciting quotes, Menorah Pledge Principles, and the reciting of the Hatikvah.
  • Menorah Pledge-  reciting of the principles which include: citizenship, Jewish Heritage, community service, philanthropy, inter-faith relations, tradition, good sisterhood, and the Prayer for World Jewry.
  • Friendship Circles- All regional/BBYO events end with the coordinators reviewing their work, saying thank-you's, etc.
  • Closing Circles- all business meetings will end with a hand-holding- closed circle and the singing of "We Pledge to Thee."
  • Spooey- basically... pretzels dipped in icing. However, it is the BBG "tradition food."
  • Beau and Sweetheart- every term (6 months), BBG will elect and AZA brother to bring food and be there at all meetings. AZA will do the same for a sister BBG.
