At the Surrey Board of Trade’s 50th President’s Dinner and Annual General Meeting on June 18th, a donation was made to Surrey Libraries Literacy for Life Campaign in the amount of $1166.10. This donation was made by the Surrey Board of Trade-Junior Achievement Youth Leaders Team, sponsored by Envision Financial. The monies are the net profits from the Youth Team’s business, a five month program where a group of eighteen Grade 10-12 students start a business, choose a product, sell their products, liquidate their assets, pay themselves as shareholders and give back to the community – all mentored by the Surrey Board of Trade, Junior Achievement of BC, and Envision Financial. The Surrey Board of Trade’s Youth Leaders Team is now in its 7th year.
