BGC London
We're a community organization that provides activities for children and youth whenever school is out
On Friday August 2nd, 2024, we welcomed Minister Jenna Sudds and MP Peter Fragiskatos to BGC London and took them on a tour of the Club.
They had the opportunity to speak with some of our older adult members at the Horton Street 50+ Centre, kids in camp, along with our staff, including those hired through the Canada Summer Jobs.
Thank you for listening and visiting! It was great to hear them talk about opportunities that change everything!
