2010 Scholarship Recipients
The Drew Hildebrand Teen Benefit Fund has been established in memory of Drew, who died on April 8, 2008 as a victim of teen violence at the age of 16. Drew was loving, caring, compassionate and funny, and had the rare ability to raise smiles and brighten hearts wherever he went. He touched many people’s lives and continues to be a positive influence with all.
Drew Hildebrand “It Takes Courage to Change” Scholarships
The Drew Hildebrand Teen Benefit Fund will recognize and reward positive change through individual scholarships for post secondary education and or training programs. Scholarships will be awarded to graduating teens who have demonstrated turnaround initiative. While a scholarship will be awarded at Drew’s high school, Thomas A Blakelock High School in Oakville, the fund’s goal is to expand to more high schools in the Halton, Peel and GTA areas so that as many turnaround teens as possible can pursue a better life.

Funding support for programs dedicated to teens
The Drew Hildebrand Teen Benefit Fund also aims to provide funding support for select programs that help teens achieve their goals for success.
Raising awareness against teen violence
More action and concern is needed to end teen violence, and we hope Drew’s fund will raise awareness and action in our communities.
The mission of the Drew Hildebrand Teen Benefit Fund is to support teens who are navigating the many pressures and dangers of violence, drugs, alcohol, among others. Through scholarship and support programs, and by raising awareness and concern among teens and within our communities, more teens will have a safer and better journey to adulthood.
