BGC Yukon 2022 Annual General Report
Age Group Pie Chart
"My son took great ownership of [Project Backpack] and it was a big part of moving him to love cooking and giving him confidence to do it. He is now making meals for the family, which brings a sense of contribution and great pride! A number of recipes were not part or our repertoire, so introduced the family to different recipes to work with. We looked forward to the surprise we would get to make each week."
"My son is happy to go to school in the morning because he knows he goes to All-Stars after-school program after."
"[Project Backback] has given us increased food security, a chance to learn new skills and recipes, and for my daughter to gain more confidence and independence in helping with meals."
"[Project Backback allowed us to have] extra money for other bills - electricity and gas. Cooking together as a family and new recipes and ingredients we haven't used before."
"Keep offering the variety of programs you do, ensuring they are inclusive, and offering the participants opportunities to learn of the different cultures."
"I like the monthly newsletter, including updates on what is planned or what has happened. A great program for the children and teens!"
"We greatly appreciate the PD Day care option!"
"Thank you for having [my son] and all the support that you all have given him and I over the past year. I truly love this program and hope to be part of any upcoming programming that you may offer...I think [BGC Yukon] is excellent for our growing youth and great staff!"
