The Peace Innovators Scholarship & Mentoring Program, a collaborative effort by Kindred Credit Union, the Centre for Peace Advancement, and The Ripple Effect Education, empowers young leaders from Ontario high schools to tackle community issues. Through workshops and mentorship, participants gain practical skills and a strong support network to drive positive change, culminating in a showcase event in April.
