Vancouver, June 14th 2022

In May 2022, Staples donated 3 small laptops, a printer, and other items worth a total of $1500 to YCW from its community fund.

Valentina and Alexander, two Grade 7 students from Vancouver, came to take possession of the items on behalf of YCW. 

The items are a small contribution towards our "Water in Action" campaign YCW is leading jointly with Cirque du Soleil and One Drop Foundation.

YCW is an organization 100% led by teachers and students with participants in 27 countries with an educational component for young people to be more engaged citizens, and a charity component to serve the 17 U.N Sustainable Development Goals in various ways.

As of May 30th, 2022, Young Citizens of the World is officially a Viceregal patron organization of Governor General of Canada Her Excellency The Right Honourable Mary Simon. 

Thank you Staples for your generosity and support to teachers.
