STOP ASIAN HATE YOUTH AWARD
Anti-Asian hate crimes reported in Canada have drastically increased during the COVID-19 pandemic where racism and false ideas about the spread of the virus have fuelled the unnecessary abuse.
​
The purpose of this Youth Stop Asian Hate Project is to give back to youth who have impacted their community and or school by contributing to the prevention of anti-Asian hate and the spread of compassion and kindness.
​
The Stop Asian Hate Youth Award, one award of $200, will be given to a deserving BC lower mainland secondary student who has strongly demonstrated that their project or projects have made a positive impact on their Asian community. Also, Empower The Future (ETF) will have five $20 prizes to be randomly raffled off to the rest of all of the participating student applicants.
​
Applications for the 2021 Stop Asian Hate Youth Award are currently now CLOSED.
