Too many of today’s youth struggle with anxiety, mental health issues, and the burden of trying to exist within a label.
I believe that if we do not persistently act on this today, to provide a forum to inspire our young people and future leaders, their future is at risk.
My mission is to inspire today’s youth towards greatness. During presentations, students are allowed to talk openly in a safe, exciting and interactive atmosphere, knowing that their feelings and opinions are heard, so that learning can take place.
We cover a variety of topics, all intended to challenge students and help them work towards their goals.
Our High School Presentations help students to understand themselves, their relationships, and their world.
Empowering our youth is key to their success, and the success of our future world.

"During her visit she spoke to the students about self-esteem, making first impressions that count, how to be interviewed and, most importantly, how to love yourself and be proud of who you are. She stressed the importance of choosing friends wisely, friends who help you achieve your goals in life.
Her inspirational words will remain with the students throughout their transition from high school to the workplace or post secondary education. She spoke with a firm compassion to each and every student by taking the time to meet them all individually. Her belief in her program extended to the students in a positive way."

"I have learned some of the most simple, yet important values in your course when you came to visit our business class. I think that if each and every student in high school was able to listen to a speech like the one you presented to my class, more than once, then they would not only stay motivated to do good things for themselves. It should be mandatory for a person to come into a high school environment and present a speech much like yours at least twice a year. I think it would improve the education system allot more."

"Quite simply, Joy’s presentation was masterful. It was life giving, it was inspirational, it let the students know that they are indeed a gift, and that they are called to greatness. The students felt invigorated, challenged, motivated, supported, and at the end of the session so desperately wanted to ‘board the plane’ tomorrow and head to Tanzania. It was an honour to witness Jot’s interaction with our students and staff, and I am so thankful to her for sharing her gifts with us – her gifts of presence, hope, and voice."

"Joy is certainly a force to be reckoned with; therefore, my advice to future young audiences is “watch out” because you are now at risk of being elevated and transformed."

"Ms. Foster truly captivates her audience by interacting directly with individuals in the crowd. You never know when she’s going to call on you! But when she does, you feel like you could accomplish anything!"

Chairperson, Health and Physical Education
