Hi All,
This will be my first juicer as well...so I thought that I would also drop
a quick line to introduce myself.
I work with D-Code ( www.d-code.com) and we are a research, strategy and
innovation firm with special expertise in members of Information Age
Generations – those that have grown up during the rapid explosion of
communication technology. We work with businesses, government agencies, and
non-profit organizations to help them to understand and engage consumers,
employees, and citizens.
Currently we have been working on a couple of syndicated studies....one
looking at youth civic engagement , another looking at what new university
graduates are looking for in potential employers as well as one looking at
young families. We have also just recently completed a global study looking
at media consumption amongst youth around the world and I just finished
working with an NGO based in Vancouver helping them to develop a national
youth strategy
One of the most important aspects of D-Code is our network of over 800
D-Coders ( youth, young adults and young families) who we engage on our
project to bring real life experiences as well as a diversity of views.
Can't wait to meet all of you!
See you soon
Shauna

Hi all,
This will be my first juicer (since I wasn't able to make the last one)
so I look forward to meeting everyone.
I work with the Maytree Foundation (www.maytree.com) and our interaction
with youth is limited to our scholarship program. The Maytree
Scholarship program is a scholarship for Protected Persons (formerly
known as Convention Refugees) between the ages of 18-25 years who are
attending, or will be attending a post secondary school (university or
college) in Toronto. It covers tuition, books, transportation and a
living allowance. Since 1999, Maytree has funded over 100 students. As
well, since August 1, 2004 Protected Persons are now eligible for both
the federal and provincial portion of Canada Student Loans (a lot of
people don't know this!). These students will be charged domestic rates
by the Colleges and Universities. FYI: The deadline for the scholarship
has passed.
We recently started an alumni association and managed to raise over a
$1000 for Protected Persons attending post secondary institutions for
the year 2006-2007. Most bursaries and grants at post secondary schools
require that a student's status be Permanent Resident, effectively
excluding students with Protected Person status. The Maytree Alumni
bursary would help those students finance some of their post secondary
education and at the same time allow the alumni to come together and
give back to the community. So if any of you work with students with
that status please inform them about the bursary. The guidelines and
application forms are available at www.maytreealumni.com. The deadline
is July 31, 2006.
Thanks and see you next Tuesday!
