Blake Lively have donated $250,000 to Influence Mentoring Society, an organization that helps Indigenous youth in post-secondary education, with the goal of eliminating employment gaps faced by Canada's Indigenous peoples.
In many Indigenous cultures, mentoring is an important way in which youth are guided through the world and learn from their elders. The donation will allow the organization to launch its Influence Mentoring Program. The online program helps Indigenous
post-secondary students find mentors anywhere in Canada, who work with
youth to improve their knowledge on Indigenous cultures, history and
issues.
"We are so happy to support the Influence Mentoring program that will help Indigenous youth in Canada, who are trying to successfully complete their post-secondary pursuits and enter the job market for the first time," the couple said in a statement. "All too often, diverse groups are left behind in the things we take for granted. This program aims to rectify that imbalance."
