Indeed. The key to happiness in fact is living a simple life with purpose. The number one lesson we reach the boys. Thank you @GiustraFdn@Frank_Giustra for your leadership always 💙💙

It was such an honour to host & present to the BCN this past Wednesday & to encourage, lead and empower the boys through the spoken words of our very own, Tony Vecchio. Conversations sparked were on the topic of emotional intelligence & overcoming adversity! 👥💪🏼@BoysClubNetwork
Proud to support BCN mentor Geoffroy Roulleau @feastdining in raising funds for @NSRescue@LionsBaySAR, together with friends of BCN Mayors @maryannbooth@LindaCBuchanan & MLA @jthornthwaite. Amazing turnout by awesome community-minded people. Thank you for your leadership! 🚁🥾
BCN mentor Geoffroy Roulleau & wife Yasmin hosted a fabulous fundraising event for our world-class search & rescues orgs. Organizer Lilith (left) conceived of the event after being rescued herself recently. Thx Jane for ongoing support of SARs and BCN. Here’s to walking the talk!
👍🏼 @GrantFrend. You are a good man! Thank you and @wchow15 for connecting BCN to Maple Ridge boys. Our new teacher-leaders at Thomas Haney are stellar, as are the boys! We look forward to expanding to other district schools & making a difference. @Rob_Fleming@mikefarnworthbc
🙏🏻🙏🏻 Awesome program, thank you! School Districts can apply through the BCSSA, for funding to support expanded ERASE strategy programs. Grants monies go directly to communities, independently supported by our privately funded foundation.
The @BoysClubNetwork, founded in the Lower Mainland, is bringing its successful community mentorship program for at-risk young men to communities around the province thanks to a $1.12M grant from the provincial government. Founder Walter Mustapich explains their unique approach.
Grateful to @CBCEarlyEdition for sharing the news that targeted school districts can apply to BCSSA for grants to support curriculum development and chapter support as part of the $1.2M ERASE program funding. It takes a village!
It is an honour to be included in a comprehensive suite of programs aimed at helping boys and young men grow into happy and hopeful good men who make healthy choices and complete their education. Thank you 🙏🏻
By working with our education, law enforcement and community partners, we’re supporting youth in schools find good role models, make positive life choices and say no to gangs. https://t.co/zbAs9M03Ug #bced#Erase @SafeEducationBC @AbbotsfordSD@BoysClubNetwork
Our president, Frank Giustra, is a founding patron of @BoysClubNetwork and is actively involved as a mentor. "Being a good man is a lifelong journey," he says. Check out the good work of the BCN. #goodmen#integrity#mentorship

Such a super fun day at BCN Summer Camp with a favourite mentor/cooking teacher. The boys are still talking about it 🙏🏻🙏🏻, and they’ve grown taller (must be the @domenica_fiore ). Video coming soon!
Founding patron @Frank_Giustra walking the talk; setting a great example for our boys. If we all just paid it forward in one small way every day - with a kindness, sharing, or gesture, what a difference that would make for so many!
Super fun day in July - BCN Langley Summer Camp visited the Northshore Camp for a day of cooking lessons taught by BCN founding patron @Frank_Giustra. Frank shared his mother Domenica Giustra's much-loved recipes for mouth-watering Sunday Sauce & Chicken Cacciatore. Lucky boys!!
The Giustra Foundation is a proud supporter of several international initiatives. But we also support many local programs, including the @BoysClubNetwork of Vancouver, which helps young men become good men through positive mentorship, opportunity and education.
