Project Pathway

Project Pathway’s mission is to empower disadvantaged Aboriginal Canadians by transforming their personal strengths into entrepreneurial ventures. Many Indigenous  individuals struggle due to lack of education, basic work skills, and stigma surrounding natives. Over 50% live below the poverty line and with a 27% unemployment rate; many of them struggle to maintain a decent standard of living. Through one-on-one mentorship and customized modules, our highly trained student mentors teach business education with topics such as market research, pricing strategies and branding as well as financial literacy with topics such as budgeting, saving and income tax, ultimately allowing them to build successful futures.
