A significant portion of this year’s grants support initiatives that inspire learning and help young people build skills for the future. Across North America, Domtar invests in projects ranging from the transformation of St. Gabriel’s Elementary School library in Windsor, Quebec, to support for the Alberni District Secondary School robotics club in British Columbia. Other contributions help the Kingsport Chamber of Education & Workforce Development in Tennessee, deliver science and technology programs for children, expand the West Carrollton High School robotics club in Ohio to reach more students, and strengthen early literacy programs for young learners in Daviess County public schools in Kentucky. Together, these initiatives are creating enriching educational opportunities that empower the next generation.
