Rising Youth Community Service Grants

Rising Youth Community Service Grants empowers young people, ages 15-30 to imagine ideas that can support their local community and helps put those ideas into action through grants of $250, $750, or $1500.

A dedicated team of Youth Engagement Activators are available nationwide to answer questions related to the application process and provide ongoing project support to make sure youth projects are thriving and successful.

This initiative is administered by TakingITGlobal and funded by the government of Canada through its Canada Service Corps initiative.

Join us for the Living Heritage Symposium!

Expanding on last year’s theme of “Sharing the Land,” presentations will focus on how we relate to the land in a changing world. By the age of seven each one of us has been immersed in a cultural milieu we inherit from previous generations. As we grow, our cultural perspective & worldview are adapted to meet changing needs and circumstances. Through interactive exercises, conversation and performance we will explore different cultural perspectives and contemporary values related to our understanding of place, our relationship with the land and how we care for the land that sustains us all. Creating a shared
future depends on it.

Sessions include:
• Conversation with Trevor Herriot, Saskatchewan based writer – naturalist – activist
• Discussion on Faith Perspectives on the Land
• Discussion on Values, Policy and the Land
• Performance by “Songwriting for Nature” artists
The cost to attend is $10.00 + GST. If you would like to attend but the registration fee is a barrier, please contact organizers for registration options.
