Federation of B.C. Youth in Care Networks is a charitable organization based in New Westminster, British Columbia, classified by the CRA under organizations relieving poverty. It appears on the charity register the way hospitals, universities, and other publicly funded bodies do — to issue tax receipts — rather than as a donation-driven charity in the usual sense. In its fiscal year ending March 31, 2024, it reported $1.2M in revenue and $1.2M in expenditures.

In its own words
We are a youth-driven peer-based provincial non-profit organization dedicated to improving the lives of young people in and from care in bc between the ages of 14 and 24. We were created by a group of young people in care who saw the need for more supports for their peers. That was in 1993 and today we still stay true to their vision. Our programs create a safe space for youth to come together build connections identify challenges and feel at home. Throughout the year we host youth retreats provide bursaries for education and skills development support youth with training and leadership…
