Youth Climate Court of Newfoundland & Labrador

Nonprofit

The Youth Climate Court of Newfoundland & Labrador is a non-profit organization that calls for the accountability of city and county governments that are not adequately addressing the climate crisis. The YCC-NL is mainly comprised of young people whose rights are being most dramatically impacted by climate change.  The YCC will call the city or county government to court for failing to protect the basic human rights of their citizens with youth judges, youth prosecuting attorneys and youth jury members to put their local city or county government on trial for not living up to its human rights obligations. Youth leaders will then organize a trial and summon members of that government to attend and explain themselves in open Youth Court against charges that that government is failing to adequately protect the basic human and constitutional rights of its citizens, in face of the threats of climate change.

TecNurtur

Nonprofit

A youth-led initiative bridging technology education and community support. At Tec Nurtur, we believe that education and community service shouldn't exist in separate silos. We're a youth-led initiative that combines technology education with meaningful community impact. Every workshop we host requires participants to contribute food donations, which we distribute to local food banks and families in need. This unique model ensures that as our students grow their technical skills, they're also growing their commitment to community service. Founded and run by young people who are passionate about both technology and community, we're proving that the next generation can create innovative solutions to real-world problems.

Rushoon Community Center Committee

Nonprofit

A committee elected by the residents of the community of Rushoon to operate and fundraise for the new community center within the community,  The community center was previously the RC parish hall but was purchased by the community via the Town of Rushoon Council.  It was initially built in the community as a high school in 1964 using some wood from the base in Argentia.  The community kept the building going under the parish of Christ the King until it went up for sale to pay for the actions of the RC archdiocese. This building has been used not only as a school, but church, concert venue, wedding venue, school graduation ceremony and funerals.  To this day the then "hall" now community center continues to be an inportant part of life in this small southern Newfoundland Community.
