Testimonials

Generation chosen isn’t just a program It’s a sanctuary as I like to call it. A place where most of us teens take refuge from the harsh realities of our communities, A place where most of us have found our first role models/ mentors, a second home, A family. The anchors take their time out of their busy days to bring us on fun but educational trips outside of the scheduled program days. When I first attended in grade 9 I was really shy an open space like generation chosen helped me socialize more which has helped me a lot, this program can have the same impact on thousands of individuals as it did me I am truly grateful.

As a member of Generation Chosen I know that I have been given many opportunities which can help me not only now but also in the future. I have encountered many obstacles over the years in which I have attended this program and there was not on situation in which I didn't feel like I could talk to any of the anchors in the program. I am also very proud to be a member of the program as it is a lot of dun and members are friendly and welcoming.

I feel Genchosen is a pleasant and necessary community for the youth. Its great to have a program that consists of staff that reside in the same area as the youth and can relate to many of the situations the youth has, providing an even greater bond. I had the privelege of being part of the program in its infancy and the anchors of genchosen who ive come to look up to and admire, leave a very positive image in my mind that i try to emulate from when i was first introduced to them to even the present. These programs are important for the community as it keeps the youth occupied in a positive setting
