Achieving the Dream Through Education Communities

Indigenous Youth Need Your Support! – Providing indigenous youth with financial assistance to access their dream through education.

When you donate, you are giving more than money. You are providing Matawa youth with the means to realize their full potential and empower them to make life-changing choices that impact them and their community. By creating a bursary, you are offering them access to post-secondary education; when you support a fund, these dollars enhance their learning opportunities. When you provide resources for clothing, computers, sports equipment and art supplies, you are making a difference one student at a time!

Graduate Spotlight!

Destiny graduated from the Matawa Education and Care Centre in 2024 and received the Jamie Campbell Bursary. This support helped her cover her basic needs, allowing her to focus fully on her studies.

During her time at the MECC, Destiny developed a strong connection to the Land-Based program (See photos!). She found it to be a powerful way to learn, connect with her culture, and support her mental well-being. Inspired by these experiences, Destiny set her sights on becoming a land-based teacher, with hopes of one day returning to teach Matawa youth.

She is currently working toward her Outdoor Recreation degree and plans to continue on to Teachers College.

We are incredibly proud of Destiny’s vision, dedication, and commitment to giving back to her community.Image attachmentImage attachment+2Image attachment

Congratulations

Today, on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, also known as Orange Shirt Day, we pause to reflect on the children who never made it home, the survivors of residential schools, and the generations of families and communities forever impacted.

This day is a reminder that Every Child Matters, and that reconciliation is not just about remembering the past, but about building a better future together.

At Achieving the Dream Through Education, we believe education is a pathway to healing, opportunity, and empowerment. The light of a new day, like this sunrise, symbolizes hope, resilience, and the strength of Indigenous youth who carry forward the dreams of their ancestors.

🧑 Today, we stand in solidarity. We remember. We honor. We commit to walking this path of truth and reconciliation together.
