For Youth Initiative (FYI)’s Post

🌟 Meet Amara! 🌟 This giving season, we’re thrilled to introduce you to Amara – a bright and determined 16-year-old bursting with hope and ambition. Amara has big goals and the passion to make them happen, but like so many youth in our city, she’s faced some challenges along the way. In Toronto, where nearly 28% of youth live in poverty, dreams are often overshadowed by barriers like financial stress, limited resources, and a lack of support. For Black, racialized, and newcomer youth, these challenges are even more significant, and Amara has felt that struggle firsthand. 🚀 Where You Come In 🚀 But here’s where Amara’s story gets exciting – and where you can play a leading role! With the FYI Future Fund, we’re helping youth like Amara take those crucial first steps toward realizing their dreams. Over the next few weeks, you’ll get to follow along as Amara’s story unfolds, seeing firsthand how your donations and generosity bridge the equity gap and empower them to achieve milestones every step of the way. Donate today to be a part of Amara’s story and help the youth we serve rise to their potential: https://lnkd.in/eRzGjrzV 🎁 Your gift of just $50 today can provide a mentorship session that connects youth like Amara with a youth worker who can support them to develop skills and access resources, growing their confidence to pursue their goals. #givingseason #youthprograms #youthservices #youthwork #communitydevelopment #communityleadership #equity #youthfutures #fyifuturefund #torontoyouth
