We are the Canadian Youth Business Foundation (CYBF), a national charity providing start-up mentoring, financing and business resources for young Canadians, age 18-34, to create their own successful businesses.
Founded in 1996, CYBF is truly unique. It's an organization that is all about dreams, energy and momentum. It's an organization that supports youth who would not otherwise have the opportunity to realize their full potential and launch a business. It's an organization that is helping to drive the Canadian economy by leading the future development of youth entrepreneurship both domestically and internationally.
Modeled after the UK's Prince's Trust, CYBF is an accredited member of Youth Business International, and has been recognized as one of the most efficient organizations of its kind globally. As such, CYBF is often called upon to mentor other countries with their youth entrepreneurship programs.
