Janet W.
Janet entered the national "Stop RacismYouth Challenge" to raise awareness
of the impact of
racism on society. She was involved in the creation of an anti-racism
mural at the Yellowknife YWCA, which invited people from the community
to add their handprint to the mural in a show of support for tolerance
and understanding. Janet also actively volunteers with Students Against
Drunk Driving, Run for the Cure and the Terry Fox Run.
