Vigilant Futures sponsors Youth Action Montreal’s youth summit: Living Your Legacy

by Adelaide Z  |  April 27, 2011

In keeping with our corporate philosophy of supporting community initiatives that promote youth education, we decided to venture off slightly and sponsor an event that takes community engagement among youth to heart; the same way Vigilant Futures does.

This year, Youth Action Montreal is organizing an event that will draw thousands of college and university-aged students from across the country to our fair city with the hope of igniting a flame of social activism and community engagement. The theme: Living Your Legacy and Vigilant Futures is a proud sponsor.

Key-note speakers include several notable Canadians like David Suzuki, Michaëlle Jean, and Stephen Lewis, but also former U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan. The conference will also feature local community youth projects, including an organization dear to Vigilant Futures, Youth Fusion.

The day promises to be insightful and inspirational, with lots of calls to action I’m sure.
