Ryan first started attending the Services to Access Resources & Recreation (STARR) program when he was in grade two and has been an active member ever since. Ryan has participated in our in-school and after-school programs as well as multiple school break camps. Not only did he excel in our in-school leadership programs he has been a key part of our after-school and camp programming. In eighth grade he transitioned into a Junior Leader, helping run our programs and supporting younger participants. All of his involvement in our programs has enabled him to build up his volunteer hours and learn to take on different and increasing levels of responsibility as he grew up, including engaging our children and youth. His work within the program assisted in his acceptance in the Engineering program for UBC, and enriched his involvement in his school and community.
