Our Program

Our program focuses on three foundational pillars; mentorship, empowerment, and leadership. We believe in promoting the skill development of young women in our community and we strive to provide valuable opportunities for them. We also aim to shape the future ambassadors of Kelowna, and to provide bursaries for the young women crowned to further support their education and development.
