Winning the $50,000 SimpleGenerosity grant from Envision Financial, a division of First West Credit Union helps the mentoring program create amazing benefits to the elementary kids who have the chance to connect with an older mentor, while also empowering teens by helping them realize the impact they can have in their community by being involved in giving back. The teen mentoring program creates a win-win situation by recruiting, training and supporting teens that are looking for opportunities to give back to their community, thereby providing more students with a friend to talk to, laugh with, and who will encourage and support them. The program strives to promote the importance of staying in school and establishing healthy relationships with family and peers, instill youth with the trust and self-confidence required to make healthy decisions, and encourage leadership skills and independent thinking. Thank you for helping us celebrate Canada150 and strengthening our communities with SimpleGenerosity!
