AZAy poco después BBG, se fundaron con la visión de involucrar y apoyar la vida judía en comunidades de todo el mundo. Desde 1927, nuestro alcance ha sido internacional, y hoy contamos con capítulos en 60 países. El fortalecimiento de las comunidades judías de todos los tamaños y tipos es una prioridad de AZA y BBG y un valor judío. Es nuestra obligación defender la vida y la tradición judías, y nuestro honor compartir la plataforma AZA y BBG en todo el mundo para garantizar la continuidad de nuestro pueblo.
Desde nuestra fundación en Omaha, Nebraska, en mayo de 1924, AZA y BBG se han expandido en cientos de capítulos divididos en 40 regiones de Estados Unidos y Canadá. El primer capítulo en Canadá se fundó en Calgary, Alberta, en diciembre de 1926.
BBYO’s first chapters in Latin America started in the early 1950s with the founding of AZA in Mexico City. BBYO Argentina, founded in 2012, is home to our largest membership in Latin America. Today, BBYO has a presence in Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Honduras, Mexico, Panama, Puerto Rico, and Uruguay.
Since the founding of the first AZA chapter in Leeds in March 1940, the love of AZA and BBG across Western Europe has only continued to grow. After expanding to cover most of the United Kingdom, BBYO established its first AZA chapter in Paris, France in January 1945. Today, BBYO has a presence in Austria, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Iceland, Ireland, The Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and The United Kingdom.
BBYO has had a presence in Eastern Europe since 1936, when the first chapter outside of North America was established in Sofia, Bulgaria. While the size of the Jewish communities are smaller in Eastern Europe, our chapters thrive and continue to grow across the region. Today, BBYO has a presence in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, and Turkey.
BBYO's community in the Former Soviet Union (FSU) is known as JDC's Active Jewish Teens (AJT) with clubs spanning from Kiev to Bishkek. JDC's AJT was founded in 2013 through a joint effort with BBYO and the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (JDC). AJT reaches thousands of teens across the FSU led by their governing body, the AJT Parliament. JDC's Active Jewish Teens is present in Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, and Ukraine.
BBYO is a proud partner of Maccabi World Union in Israel. AZA and BBG work hand-in-hand with Maccabi World Union's youth Movement, Maccabi Tzair. Maccabi Tzair has dozens of youth clubs across the country that are led by the Haganah. Teens from Israel are plugged into BBYO experiences year-round through our summer camps, trips to Israel, Movement initiatives, and more.
BBYO has a growing presence in the Middle East and recently launched in Morocco in 2021 and United Arab Emirates in 2024.
BBYOLa presencia de la Asociación en África comenzó en abril de 1941 con los 76 miembros fundadores de Maimonidies AZA en El Cairo (Egipto). AZA y BBG siguieron creciendo en África en 1961 con la fundación de una sección AZA en Johannesburgo. En la actualidad, BBYO está presente en Kenia, Uganda y Sudáfrica.
In June 1941, a group of Alephs were installed into the first chapter in Asia in Shanghai, China. BBYO has had a resurgence in the region after a few decades of dormancy. Today, BBYO has a presence in China, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, Taiwan, and Thailand.
Since 1948, BBYO has had a storied history in Australia stretching from Sydney to Melbourne. In recent years, chapters have flourished and brought a new renaissance of AZA and BBG to the region. Today, BBYO has a presence in Australia.

In 2019, dedicated alumni Lewis and Sandy Schneider launched a visionary campaign to ensure that every Jewish teen has access to the friendships and leadership skills that BBYO offers. Called the For Every Jewish Teen (FEJT) Campaign, this campaign has a special focus on Jewish teens who live in small, medium, and rural communities, as well as unique locations like military bases and boarding schools.
Since the establishment of the For Every Jewish Teen Campaign, over 800 teens who may have not otherwise had opportunities to participate in Jewish life have become members of BBYO, and over 1,500 teens have participated in local BBYO programs supported by the campaign.

After October 7th, we were reminded of the crucial role and profound significance of community for Jewish teens. BBYO can serve as the place for teens to have conversations, process information and ask questions without judgment. Our aim is to create an environment where every teen feels confident to participate, learn, and grow.
