Achievement & Recognition Awards 2020
Save the Date! The 16th Annual Aboriginal Youth Achievement & Recognition Awards takes place Tuesday May 5th at the Valhalla Inn. Nomination Forms will be available early January.
We are committed to ensure that Aboriginal youth look forward to new and innovative ways of learning about and planning for their future.
01
Our History
The Northwestern Ontario Aboriginal Youth Achievement and Recognition Awards was formally known as The Niigaantige Career Fair. It began in 1987 when a need was identified to address the high attrition rates among Aboriginal students studying at the secondary and post secondary levels.
With each passing year, the Awards Ceremony has gained more and more recognition while providing hope for our Aboriginal youth.
02
Our Committee
The AYARA Committee is comprised of all volunteers and community members who represent organizations in Northwestern Ontario. We are committed to encourage and reward Aboriginal youth who focus on innovative ways of learning about and planning for their future.
This year’s event has grown and expanded once again. We wish to recognize those employers and individuals in Northwestern Ontario who have demonstrated outstanding commitment, inspiration and devotion to encouraging our youth.
03
Our Sponsors
We are able to celebrate our youth at these awards only because of the generous sponsorship from those companies and organizations such as yours who also believe that our youth are the leaders of today and tomorrow.
