Check out the YANNIES

Celebrate six years of empowering Ottawa-Gatineau youth! Join the Youth Action Now (YAN) team on November 30th, 2024 for a night of celebration as we mark our 6th anniversary. Founded by the late Member of Parliament and teacher, Paul Dewar, YAN has carried forward his vision of an organization led by and for young people. This red-carpet event, dubbed "The YANNIES," is a fusion of awards ceremony, networking session, and celebratory bash! Enjoy delicious hors d'oeuvres and mocktails (for sale) as we recognize the incredible achievements of 14 youth-led initiatives in the Ottawa region. These spectacular young minds, all past recipients of YAN's microgrants, have made a positive impact on our community, and we're thrilled to celebrate them!

Youth Action Now is a group of diverse and dynamic young people taking action in our communities.

We know action needs resources and money, so our goal is to support and fund youth-led, collective initiatives between the ages of 14-30 through our Start-Up NOW and Momentum Grants.
