It is a Jewish organization that prides itself on its sense of community, and everyone in the AZA Hurricanes Chapter is excited and looks forward to every meeting. BBYO provides teens with the opportunity to be part of a global movement spanning 61 countries and boasting an impressive 70,000+ members, and one that is celebrating its centennial this year. This organization allows Jewish teens to meet, build friendships, and bond over BBYO’s ideals of fraternity, democracy, and Judaism. This organization, and primarily Miami’s Hurricanes AZA Chapter, has built a brotherhood in Miami, as friends that are made in BBYO stick for life. Teenage boys can further their knowledge of Jewish ideals and continue with their Jewish experience, living through principles and structures that have been around for the last 100 years. Meetings are every Tuesday at the Alper JCC, where the boys get together alongside their sister chapter, N’shamah BBG, and spend an hour participating in chapter programming. Alongside these events, teens can also attend conventions, two annually with South Florida, where hundreds of teens spend Shabbat and a weekend together at a hotel celebrating Judaism and learning leadership. Alongside these, teens can also attend International Convention, where thousands of teens from around the world meet for 5 days to learn, celebrate, and have fun together, alongside people like the Second Gentleman of the US, TV Star Maddie Ziegler, and many other past guests. BBYO also provides unparalleled leadership opportunities for teens, with them being able to serve various roles on chapter, regional, and even international boards, alongside various leadership roles all around. This organization has built many friendships and connected many people further to their religion and their personality, and has changed hundreds of thousands of lives worldwide.
