In this episode we get to know Make Your Mark, an initiative of United Way of the Alberta Capital Region that teaches students from kindergarten to Grade 12 about social issues in their own communities, the role of non-profit organizations, and how they can make a real impact. We interview Sarah Chan about what drives her involvement with Make Your Mark as United Way works to grow the program to more local school projects. We also talk to Michelle Sabourin, a high school teacher at M.E. LaZerte and a champion of the program who participates annually with her students. And we hear from students Jessica and Drew, who are actively participating in Make Your Mark and share how this program has a direct impact on students.
Join us as we examine who is readying the next generation of changemakers in the Alberta Capital Region, and how are they doing it. United Way’s Make Your Mark is presented by Dentons.
