Why Join
For cool things to do on the weekends, sports leagues, new friends, life experience and skills that make admissions officers smile, a place where the “in-crowd” is an inclusive one, and a chance to be in charge, AZA and BBG membership is what you’re looking for.
At nearly 100 years old, AZA and BBG are not getting any younger, but, we are getting bigger. Today, you’ll find Alephs and BBGs in 600 communities across 52 countries. (That’s right, wherever you go, there’s always someone… from BBYO.)

Global Connections
Like the 500,000 alumni before us, we are redefining “Jewish Youth Movement” and how we can shape the world—and we’re having a lot of fun along the way. Through service, advocacy, cross-cultural connections, and powerful programs, we’re leading our fraternity and sorority to new places.
We always say, in AZA and BBG, you’ll “find yourself here.” And that’s true. You’ll also find gold medalists, rock stars, humanitarians, politicians, dreamers, leaders, educators, and a space for you at the podium. This is your AZA and BBG. Join Us.
For a one-time payment of $149 enjoy the BBYO benefits that last a lifetime.
What To Expect
The Aleph Zadik Aleph (AZA), BBYO’s high school leadership program and fraternity for young men, and the B’nai B’rith Girls (BBG), AZA’s sister program for young women, represent the largest pluralistic Jewish youth movement and are active in over 25 countries. For 90 years, AZA and BBG have helped shape the lives of its members – a network of more than 400,000 alumni, many of whom are leaders in the fields of business, politics, academia, the arts and Jewish communal life, and attribute much of their success to the experiences they had in BBYO.
When you think about how you want to define your high school years, consider the following: dances, Shabbat dinners and Jewish holidays, sports, community service opportunities, travel experiences, leadership skill-building sessions (where you’re in charge!)… and so much more! As a member of AZA and BBG, you’re a part of BBYO and are connected to a great group of friends and plenty of opportunities to explore your interests, build your resume and social calendar.
Experience
What’s even better about AZA and BBG is that it’s a completely customizable experience. Our renowned leadership offerings empower members to create and lead their own programs that reflect their interests.
We “get” the stress that comes with starting high school, getting into university and finding a place where you can be yourself, and BBYO offers a comfortable, inclusive environment where lifelong friendships are formed, leadership skills are developed and Jewish identity values are nurtured.
Cost and Benefit
Regardless of the BBYO path you choose, you’ll graduate high school with experiences that will set you apart on college applications, provide you with a network of Jewish friends and prepare you for the real world.

Where Young Lives Take Shape
Where Young Lives Take Shape
BBYO offers the ‘goods’ that school and other extracurricular activities don’t always offer. We do this by giving teens the opportunity to stand up for things they believe in, lead initiatives, build confidence and character, make an impact and form authentic relationships. These relationships and experiences are proven to benefit a young person long after high school ends.
With a 90 year tradition and over 400,000 alumni, BBYO involvement offers teens a way to connect to their heritage and something bigger than themselves.
BBYO programming is completely teen-led and staff-supported and offers teens exciting and exclusive events in their own community, ranging from weekend conventions to sports leagues and social events to community service projects.
Let us know how best to contact you (or your teen) and we’ll make sure to be in touch.
