Welcome
Break The Divide is a network that connects youth. We inspire students to create change by fostering empathy and learning from one another through personal connection.
We are all one.
Together, we can Break The Divide.
A night to break stigmas, change mindsets and so much more.
Congratulations to the Tamanawis Secondary Break The Divide chapter on a successful Break The Stigma event!
What We Do
Break The Divide Foundation is a non-profit organization that connects youth to initiate in dialogue. Through personal connection, we put communities at the forefront of decision-making.
Empathy
By becoming personalized with issues facing others’ communities, students are more passionate about making a change in society. Youth are also more likely to understand the nuances of issues in communities by learning about them from a firsthand perspective.
Get Involved
Are you passionate about what we’re doing? Let us know! We are always looking for youth to help us. Start a chapter of Break The Divide up at your school!
