Youth Deserve a Chance to Dream - Working together to give our youth a better tomorrow.

Congratulations to Kijana Mitchell, YDCD's 2008 scholarship recipient. 

Traditionally, Youth Deserve a Chance to Dream's annual scholarship is awarded to youth entering post secondary educational institutions.

Kijana is a musical prodigy attending St. Michael's Choir School in the City of Toronto.  Kijana entered the school in Grade 3 after considerable difficulty adapting socially and academically in a regular school program.  It was later discovered that Kijana possessed superior academic capabilities; and it was suggested that he would benefit from a gifted program. 

Volunteers from Youth Deserve a Chance to Dream prepared and served Thanksgiving dinner at the Second Base Youth Shelter on Sunday October 12th, 2008.

Second Base Youth Shelter is an emergency shelter for male and female youth aged 16-21 located in Scarborough.
