ABOUT YESS
YESS Org provides emergency services for at-risk youth in Alberta as they identified a gap in available resources to those aged 16 to 18. During those critical teen years, there are no resources to help those in unfortunate circumstances to get assistance for housing, food, and safety.
THEIR MISSION
Giving youth at risk a chance

HONOURABLE MENTION
Room to Read - provides education (schools + libraries) to communities throughout the developing world (www.roomtoread.org)
Their Mission
They partner with local communities throughout the developing world to provide quality educational opportunities by establishing libraries, creating local language children’s literature, constructing schools, and providing education to girls. We seek to intervene early in the lives of children in the belief that education empowers people to improve socioeconomic conditions for their families, communities, countries and future generations. Through the opportunities that only education can provide, we strive to break the cycle of poverty, one child at a time.
