URBAN NATIVE YOUTH ASSOCIATION
UNYA's GOAL
UNYA has a philanthropic goal of $6 million to build the Native Youth Centre.
REALIZING THEIR VISION
The Native Youth Centre is opening doors not only for Indigenous youth, but for the whole community. This project presents an exciting opportunity for us all to take meaningful steps on the path to reconciliation. Every contribution they receive will help them create a community of caring in support of Indigenous youth.
THEIR AIM
UNYA sees 26,000 youth visits annually. They have played a transformational role in the lives of many Indigenous youth in Vancouver, but there is so much more they wish to do. By increasing the capacity through the Native Youth Centre, they expect to double the number of Indigenous youth they're able to serve.
