Dropping out is a problem that affects us all.
Be part of the solution. Donate today and your gift will be matched to empower youth across Canada.
Donate before December 31 and your gift will be matched to help more students graduate from high school.
Graduation is the answer to a stronger Canada.
Dropping out of high school can limit a young person’s potential for the rest of their lives.
When youth living in low-income communities receive the support they need to succeed, we all benefit.
Financial Benefits
Civic Benefits
Economic Benefits
When students living in low-income communities graduate from high school, their families aren’t the only ones with a reason to celebrate. Graduation is the key to a more equitable economy, a healthier population, and a better future for all Canadians.
Why Pathways?
When you support the award-winning Pathways to Education Program, you’re helping young people across Canada. Our combination of academic, financial, social, and one-on-one supports is proven to remove barriers to graduation and empower students to pursue their passions.
- Through tutoring and tailored study plans, Pathways tutors and staff keep students on track with their studies. They also help youth stick to healthy routines and build habits that support learning.
- Pathways provides students with both short- and long-term financial supports, like lunch vouchers, transit passes, and scholarships for post-secondary education or training.
- Pathways staff connect students with mentors who can provide career guidance and advice. Pathways mentors are professionals in various fields, providing youth with valuable industry knowledge and giving them opportunities to build a network that can help them beyond high school.
- Personalized support from a Pathways staff member ensures that all students have a trusted adult they can turn to for advice or guidance throughout their high school journey.
Our network of volunteers, staff members, and alumni grows every day with your support. Together, we can continue to have a transformative impact on young people, their communities, and our collective future.
Add your support to the equation.
