Without the support of our sponsors and partners, our youth programming would not be possible.

Our goal is to make all our youth programs free and accessible to all youth. In 2020, we want to deliver Youth Leadership training at Don Ross Middle School and Howe Sound Secondary School. We want to offer quarterly Service Spotlight training to equip youth with essential frontline skills. And we we want to create inspiring events, such as a panel of young business leaders.

We have lofty goals and we are seeking partners and sponsors. We have already raised about 20% of our target, which means some programming will start in 2020.

There are many different ways you can help. If you would like to be a Squamish Youth Chamber Champion and help make our programming possible, please contact [email protected].
