BC SPCA youth programs bring together kids who are passionate about helping animals and want to be a voice for those in need.

Are you a kid who cares deeply about keeping animals safe, healthy and happy? The BC SPCA Kids Club, summer camps, youth workshops and activities can help you in your mission to make a difference!

We also have resources for educators looking to bring animal welfare into the classroom.

The BC SPCA Monty Fund for Education and Outreach supports BC SPCA youth programs and helps create a brighter future for animals and the leaders of tomorrow.
