Major Community Sponsorships
Stó:lō Youth Entrepreneurship Initiative
The Sqéwqel Development Corporation has invited Indigenous youth (aged 16-29) from our First Nation communities to attend the Stó:lō Youth Entrepreneurship Initiative Conference, taking place at the Seabird Island Band Gymnasium on October 14, 2023. The intent of the gathering is to assist Indigenous youth in developing greater financial awareness and literacy, receive guidance and mentorship on the critical components of establishing a business and gain valuable insight and understanding of the financial tools available to assist them and their community in becoming more self-sufficient, independent, and financially sustainable.
