We will be once again be challenging the Georgia Strait on behalf of at-risk youths. Will you stand to support them?
Welcome to My Life, Boys 4 Real and That’s Just Me are fun and interactive after-school programs for at-risk grade 7 girls and boys that address the unique challenges facing youth today. The programs take a positive youth development approach to tackle tough issues like bullying, cyberbullying, crime and other risky behaviours. The programs develop resiliency, promote self-awareness and self-esteem and foster mutual respect between girls and boys. Currently, these programs are running in elementary schools in Vancouver’s South Slope, Surrey and Richmond.
Paddling from Nanaimo to Vancouver, our brave paddlers will take as long as 10 to 14 hours to cover as many as 60 to 70 kilometres while crossing the Strait on June 6th. In so doing, they’ll face open seas, encounter marine life such as the pods of orcas and dolphins Coastal BC’s been blessed to see lately, dodge BC Ferries, and endure (hopefully) the summer sun. It’s all so we can raise funds for the YWCA to improve the quality of life for at risk children in our communities.
Want to help YWCA get it done? Click on our Fundrazr link and do your thing. We appreciate any donation, any size. We’ll put it to good use.
