The Y.E.S. grants program operates in partnership with the Students Commission of Canada and funds Saskatoon and Saskatchewan projects. Successful projects have youth involved in their delivery, planning or implementation, and demonstrate a direct impact for young peoples experiences. Y.E.S. is built on the principle and power of youth granting for youth.
