2016 is Year of the Teen and we’re excited to see how teens are making a difference in their communities. Did you know that more than 60% of teens reported being bullied? In such a diverse world, teens have the power to band together to ensure inclusion, tolerance and respect for their peers. Take a stance and show that everyone belongs at your Club and create a culture of kindness. Boys & Girls Clubs of America and Planet Fitness have teamed up to promote tolerance, and inclusion to create a more unified planet.

Submit a 1-3 minute video link to your YouTube or Vimeo video submission (via this form) by Tuesday, February 23rd (note-updated deadline) and show how your Club will create a more tolerant future and be judgement free.

The top 10 videos will be posted on MyClubMyLife and voted on by teens (to select the top 3 winners).
Winners will be announced at the 2016 National Keystone Conference.
