History at the forefront of community leadership:
Vimy Inspires Tomorrow

Through the newest Vimy Foundation education program, Vimy Inspires Tomorrow, youth ages 13 to 17 can apply lessons from history to create transformative community projects.

Six free, bilingual history-based activities will enable youth to examine, discuss, and exercise key leadership skills, all of which can be applied to their daily lives as they become leaders of tomorrow.

Youth who complete one or more activities can submit a one-page proposal for a community project to be eligible for additional leadership training and a $1,500 community project grant.

The deadline for project proposals is January 31, 2023, but the activities are available for download year-round.
