36th Annual
SALUTE TO YOUTH
Where Bright Minds Become Brilliant Stars
Please join us in celebrating the 36th Annual Salute to Youth on June 26th, 2025 at Chabot Space & Science Center. This is an incredible opportunity to witness the impact you have created across many Oakland stars through your support, including myself. Whether you donate, sponsor, attend, or simply spread the word – it will all make a difference.
Super Summer at BGCO
When school is out, Clubs are in! At our Clubs, youth ages 6 to 17 are immersed in a dynamic, supportive environment. They dive into hands-on learning, stay active through sports, express themselves through the arts, and connect with caring mentors who believe in their success.
Our Impact
BGCO offers a variety of programs that support youth in achieving positive outcomes in our three priority areas of Academic Success, Good Character & Citizenship, and Healthy Lifestyles. Our approach is proven to yield positive, impactful results:
