Grantee Impact

A few of our grantees who have made significant impact in their community through the access of funds through The Youth Harbour.

“The Youth Harbour makes submitting an application and reporting youth friendly and accessible. We greatly appreciate how they are very open to feedback and are continuously working on improving their programs by working in consultation with the youth they represent and serve”

GREEN CAREER CENTRE

“We’re so grateful for [The Harbour’s] support towards YCIL and for modelling awesome trust-based, accessible granting. [The team is] doing such thoughtful work and modelling how it should be done for bigger/older philanthropic foundations and organizations!”

CITYHIVE

“Beyond just the fact of funding — I wanted to let you know that [The Youth Harbour’s] approach is beyond the pale. [They] have treated us, and our project, with grace, kindness, and generosity at every crucial juncture. The trust [they] placed in us gave us space to do the best work we’ve ever done. Simply put, I hope that every funder in Canada takes a page from [The Youth Harbour’s] book going forward. If they’d been doing that for the last few decades, we might’ve already saved the world!”

Mentee Impact

A few of our mentees who have made strides in their youth climate work due to the accessing in-kind branding services.

“This program was an incredible opportunity, and we’re so grateful for the new branding kit created in partnership with us. It helped us streamline our brand and take our marketing to the next level.”


COMMUNITY CLIMATE COUNCIL

“Branding Buddy has been a super supportive learning experience for all of the youth engaged in the project.”

VIDEA. THE MYCELIUM COMMUNITY AND/OR WORKING TOGETHER AS ONE

“The Youth Harbour has elevated SculptShore to new heights. They have helped us grow our initiative by providing resources in funding as well as project development in branding and outreach. The new logo and branding has given our initiative the look of integrity that we need to drive it to the next level.”

Member Impact

A few of our members who have made strides in their projects due to the ability to access free working spaces.

“Being a CSS member has been fantastic. Working entirely remotely can be isolating and lonely at times (and anxiety-inducing, when you’re working on climate), so it’s great to feel like part of a larger community. I’m super inspired by the work the other members are engaged in, and I look forward to attending events with them, such as upcoming climate rallies. “


BC Climate Emergency Campaign

“I’m so appreciative of the Climate ShareSpace program for making co-working space accessible to my non-profit organization @greencareerca. At the Green Career Centre, we are actively working to support underrepresented youth in their #greencareer journey. Next year, I’m also planning on putting together more in-person events through the #assemblygrants offered at the Youth Harbour.”
