MAKE Vancouver Donates $14,000 to UNYA

MAKE Vancouver is proud to announce the completion of it's fifth year of fundraising for Urban Native Youth Association (UNYA).

Through the sale of "Every Child Matters" Orange Shirts, and with the help of the community, MAKE has reached another milestone. This year's donation of $14,020.25 brings our five year total to over $125,000 - $126,951.74 to be exact!

Our continued partnership with UNYA reflects MAKE's commitment to supporting Indigenous youth programs and honouring Residential School Survivors.

The ongoing fundraising campaign owes a great deal of thanks to local Indigenous artist KC Hall who has donated a new illustration for every year that the campaign has been in place. With his help we have raised funds that are directly benefiting hundreds of local Indigenous youth through cultural activities, workshops, and educational programs. Thank you KC!

The initiative's success has not only provided essential resources to Indigenous youth but has also raised awareness about the importance of Orange Shirt Day and the need for reconciliation.
