TO CREATE LONG BONDS WITH OTHER BROTHER ALEPHS AND SISTER BBGS!
One recurring theme, which long-time members have all agreed on, when asked why they keep coming back to BBYO, is the theme of friendship. In BBYO, friends are more than people whom you assosciate with on a daily basis--these are your fellow brothers and sisters.
The strong bonds are heartfelt, and you genuinely care for your brother Alephs, and sister BBGs. These friends cannot be forgotten since we all leave an impact on each others lives. School friends come and go, "drama" may interfere with everyday life, but in BBYO, we are emotionally and mentally mature, and do not purposely spread malicious rumors about one another. Essentially, BBYO makes you a model citizen, all while enjoying each others presence.
Don't you want friends for life? People who can see you for who you really are? Once you go to one convention (a weekend long, bonding event every couple of months), you meet such nice, geniune people who you never knew existed! Your new best friend may not live your town, since BBYO has no barriers. Why limit yourself?
