These 50 pages are, as the title says, the results of your generosity. They are also the result of countless hours of hard work, meetings, and research by dedicated volunteers and staff. The projects highlighted within these pages are ideas to improve our community. They involve hundreds of people and millions of dollars. They are intended to make our communities healthier, stronger and more livable. If you are anything like me, you will read the following page (2012 By the Numbers) with a sense of wonder. Last year, more than 4,000 grants were made possible through your generosity, totaling more than $46 million. It’s amazing when you think about it... With this money and these projects, connections are made, lives are changed, people are fed or housed, opportunities are taken, families are strengthened, young people are educated, music is written, art is created, and fragile environments are protected.

It was a year of making connections and partnerships; a year of initiating change; when we applied learnings from projects of the previous 12 months, and in the process, changed the direction of our organization. Setting Foundation Priorities Youth Homelessness Initiative Youth homelessness continued to be a priority for the Foundation, with particular attention to where we could make the most impact. Our Youth Homelessness Initiative focuses on those youth most vulnerable to homelessness. In the Vancouver Foundation Priorities section of this book, (see pages 5-6), you will find an overview of the Initiative and a summary of the work we did in this area in 2012. Connections and Engagement Our priority-setting initiative, which began with community consultations in 2011, continued to drive our activities in 2012 with the release of our report, Connections and Engagement: A Survey of metro Vancouver. The release of the survey results and discussion of potential solutions created a storm of media and public interest. It was as if we had tapped into a collective community nerve bringing the issue of isolation and disconnection in Vancouver out of the shadows and into the light. Many BC residents recognized the importance of strengthening neighbourhood and cross-cultural connections as a way of dealing with personal isolation. We saw our existing Neighbourhood Small Grants program as an ideal vehicle to address these issues and have begun looking at opportunities to expand the program throughout metro Vancouver over the next five years. We report our 2012 Connections and Engagement work in more detail in the Priorities section (see pages 7-10), including an overview of public engagement and granting activities in this area. In addition to our priority work, here are a few project highlights and milestones Vancouver Foundation achieved during 2012: Vancouver Foundation among first charities in Canada to be accredited It’s estimated there are more than 161,000 registered charities and non-profit organizations in Canada, with more than 20,000 in BC alone. In 2012, Vancouver Foundation was one of the first charities in Canada to be accredited under new national standards for non-profit organizations. The Foundation was awarded the distinction by Imagine Canada, the national organizing body for Canadian charities, under its new Standards Program. The voluntary program offers accreditation, via a third-party peer review process, to charities and non-profits that can demonstrate excellence in five key areas: board governance; financial accountability and transparency; ethical fundraising; staff management; and volunteer involvement. 2 | ancouver Foundation Greenest City Fund Community Causes Environmental awareness was another important Community Causes are a series of information sessions theme for the Foundation in 2012. organized by the Foundation to heighten awareness about various issues of concern in the community. We signed an agreement with the City of Vancouver Typically, a small group of concerned citizens are to establish the Greenest City Fund. The goal of this invited to a presentation on a particular field of interest. four-year, $2 million fund is to help make Vancouver the Through a site-tour and discussion, participants greenest city in the world by 2020. learn what Vancouver Foundation is doing to make a difference in that area, and how they can help. In the first year of the program, 150 community-led green projects were supported for a total of $538,000. In 2012, a successful event featured discussions of Those projects included: helping families connect Connections and Engagement and the Neighbourhood to nature near their home; making small Vancouver Small Grants program in December at South Vancouver businesses more energy efficient; holding bike skills Neighbourhood House.

    Cycling 11 as a Step to Align Learning in Secondary Schools with Learning in the ‘Real World’ by Darryl Dietrich A GRADUATING PAPER SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULLFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF Master of Education in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Curriculum and Pedagogy) The University of British Columbia ©Darryl Dietrich June 26, 2013 Acknowledgement My graduate advisor and project supervisor, Dr. Marina Milner-Bolotin, has provided guidance and support in the completion of this paper. I am extremely thankful for the time she has committed and the advice she has provided to help keep this project on track. I would also like to thank the Magee Secondary School community, namely colleagues and administrators for the assistance and support for bringing Cycling 11 to fruition as a locally developed course to run in Vancouver secondary schools. Lastly, and most importantly, thank you to my partner, Allison, who has been so very supportive over the duration of this Master’s program. The wisdom, advice, and support of many are very much appreciated. 2 Abstract “If we want young people with the competencies to innovate and make our economy more competitive, we need to model our schools after how innovation actually happens”1 ~Dr. Pasi Sahlberg (Finnish educator, scholar, and policy advisor) As I see it, the educational landscape in British Columbia, Canada is contradictory in its present state. Our education system, from the Ministry of Education at the top, down to teachers and students in classrooms, are not preparing students for success in the post-secondary world. There is a disconnect between how people learn after secondary school with how we expect them to learn while enrolled in school.

    The Need for Cybersecurity Education and Evolved Anti-Cyberbullying Measures

    The need for cybersecurity education and evolved anti-cyberbullying measures Youth Think Tank Report 2019 Foreword Dear Reader and Supporter, We at YouthTalkNation believe that youth should be given a voice in what affects them most. That youth should be engaged consistently and proactively by government, industry and the community to determine what policy, what product, what support do our next generation need to ensure that they are better equipped to create success for themselves and those around them. However, we also believe that conversations need to be constructive and dialogue needs to be met with united community action. As a youth think tank, YouthTalkNation is a platform where youth feel empowered to share their ideas, and their solutions are magnified to the highest level of government and industry in communitiesaround the world. Leaders are born through challenge and adversity, however great leaders are created through mentorship and feedback. As you read this report, we urge you to consider how we can support our youth not just in the generation of ideas, but in the implementation of their solutions, especially in the area of cybersecurity education. YouthTalkNation’s YouthTalkTech, strives to ensure our youth are considering technology not just as a tool for innovation, productivity and connection but also the potential risks that are hidden within. As our integration with the online world grows, the urgent need for education in responsible and safe technology use become more and more apparent. Our first youth think tank event hosted on October 5th, 2019 at the Terminal City Club in Vancouver, BC was the beginning of such a dialogue, and this report to garner the support and attention of the greater community.
