Aboriginal Youth Partnership (AYP)
AYP is a youth based organization that spreads awareness within York Region about Aboriginal issues. In the spring of 2014, AYP held a month long fundraiser for OLPC Canada including Change 4 Change, an awareness raising event at Castlemore Public School. As a result of their efforts, AYP was able to provide 20 tablets to participants of an Aboriginal summer camp in Niagara regions.
