A huge thank you to Alberta Women Entrepreneurs, Edmonton Regional Innovation Network-ERIN, and City of Spruce Grove - Your Local Government for collaborating and working to bring this event to Spruce Grove ❤️

We had some incredible YETI student businesses last summer, and we can't wait to see who we get this year.

If your high school aged kid has big ideas, a side hustle to make their own money, or wants to work for themselves this summer, they should apply for the YETI Program! We give them $500 of start-up funding, training and & support, and learning opportunities throughout the summer.

Go to YourYETI.ca to see if YETI is offered in your area, and register with your local Community Futures office!
