The Foundation raises funds to create initiatives that will allow First Nations youth to enjoy positive experiences.
This is not a new situation: First Nations are facing unbearable social issues. At the beginning of the chain, there is poverty, food insecurity, illness, and poor access to quality education. At the end of it, there are dramatic realities like violence, alcoholism, and pathological gambling. The New Pathways Foundation was created to tackle the issues associated with poverty and social exclusion.

The aim of this initiative is to encourage school perseverance and career orientation for youth First Nations. Become offers students extra support tools as well as internships where they can explore stimulating workplaces. Become is available to students to foster the development of their interests and knowledge, their self-confidence, self-esteem as well as their networking opportunities.
This initiative aims to promote healthy lifestyle habits and encourage regular physical activity among Indigenous youth. Through our culturally infused projects, we seek to motivate young people to adopt an active and healthy lifestyle, thereby cultivating pride, achievement, and a sense of accomplishment.
Because there are many obstacles to reaching their first diploma, we try to motivate young people by awarding Desjardins Foundation educational success scholarships.
The Lab finds innovative solutions to act on issues that concern First Nations youth.
