What Is Brilliant Breakfast Club Online?

Brilliant Breakfast Club (BBC) Online is a friendly weekly Zoom meet-up where young adults gather to talk about interests, share ideas, play group games, and spend time with a community that understands and welcomes them.

Each week follows a familiar rhythm. Sometimes we have guided conversations led by IOB staff. Other weeks, the group takes the lead with table topics, would-you-rather questions, or interest-based chats. On the first Friday of every month, we play virtual games like Jeopardy, Pictionary, Kahoot, or custom trivia created just for the group.

BBC Online is a space where everyone is encouraged to express themselves in the ways that feel comfortable.

 
Students and mentors work together in an IOB Foundation workshop, collaborating on iPads and laptops in a colorful studio with artwork on the walls.
