The Youth Futures Education Fund supports youth formerly in government care to pursue their dreams of higher education by providing low-barrier access to funds to support living expenses while they study. The COVID-19 pandemic has been a particularly difficult time for youth trying to continue their studies. Many struggled without family to return to or to support them financially.

We invite you to attend this virtual event to hear youth share how their lives have been impacted. And, to learn how your gifts are helping change lives.

The Youth Futures Education Fund was collaboratively founded by Coast Capital, the Province of BC, and the Representative for Children and Youth. The fund is housed at the Vancouver Foundation and is managed by United Way British Columbia.

Ensuring our supporters’ safety is important. For 2022, we are hosting a virtual event. The link to join is below:
