OUR MISSION
Be a GEM Foundation believes that all children should have equal opportunity to proper nutrition, basic necessities, and academics. We provide meals to students and their families during the holiday season, as well as hygienic care packages to teens and young women who are in a state of help. We acknowledge the visions of our young community, and encourage their will to succeed, by providing scholarships to post-secondary students who dedicate their time and knowledge to making our community a better place. We also provide school supplies to students in lower-income communities.

It's been five years since we founded Be a GEM Foundation! During this time, we have provided over $37,000 in scholarships to local students, and over $10,000 to breakfast programs, academic programs, and classroom teachers. We've also provided Christmas dinners to over 250 families, over 3000 school supplies to students in lower-income communities, over 1200 hygienic items to the Windsor Youth Centre and Hiatus House, over 300 books to local schools, and thousands of dollars in gift cards, groceries, clothes, and care packages to families in need.
