Watch how we're helping youth through our Youth Get It Education Awards.


We’re helping youth who have overcome hardships realize their post-secondary dreams

Watch how we're helping youth through our Youth Get It Education Awards.

Our Youth Get It Education Awards acknowledge youth who face significant hardships and not only rise up against the odds, but demonstrate a commitment to continue their education.

Beth Hutchinson was an inspirational Standing Tall winner in 2012, and we’re honouring her memory by making the Beth Hutchinson Award available to a student from her home community of Surrey, BC. Each year, one student is recognized as someone who best represents a commitment to continuing their education in the face of considerable health challenges.
