Today, The Twilight Saga: New Moon and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse star Tinsel Korey will be speaking to the youth before the Aboriginal Youth Night hockey game.
The event is sponsored by True North Sports and Entertainment and the Manitobe Moose Hockey Club, and tonight's events will be called "Follow Your Dreams."
According to a recent press release, "the concept is fairly simple in nature, the goals are to encourage First Nations Youth from around Manitoba to pursue their dreams through healthy living and a very specific focus on suicide prevention, due to the high suicide rate amongst First Nations youth."
2,500 are expected to attend from the 63 First Nations communities around Manitoba, and "Tinsel will share her views on the importance of education and living a clean, substance free lifestyle."
As you might remember, Korey has a special affinity for working with children and has a history of reaching out to children and encouraging them to pursue their artistic passions.
