In 2004, Kevin Chan, Beverly Sembsmoen and Joshua Silvertown created DreamCatcher Mentoring, an innovative project that connects high school students in northern Canada with professionals in their fields of interest. Volunteer ‘e-mentors’ help teens learn about their dream jobs, create attainable career goals and find motivation to stay in school. Now a part of Big Brothers Big Sisters Canada, the program continues to guide young people in remote parts of the country as they make decisions about their futures.
