2017 Indspire Awards Honouring Extraordinary Indigenous People

The 2017 Indspire Awards are this Friday March 24th from 8:30-10:30 p.m. Indspire is an indigenous-led registered charitable organization that invests in the education of indigenous people for the long-term benefit of these individuals, their families and communities, and Canada.   This organization is held close to President and CEO Dave Tuccaro’s heart, and he has been a major supporter of this worthwhile cause.  Currently serving as Chair of the Board of Directors, Dave has been instrumental in helping to raise millions of dollars for the organization.  In 2015-16, Indspire awarded over $12.2 million through 3,792 scholarships and bursaries to Indigenous students across Canada.  Enriching lives of indigenous peoples, particularly through education, is a core value to  Dave and everyone at the Tuccaro Group.  We are proud to be part of such a worthy organization.
