The Herbert H. Carnegie Future Aces Foundation is a non-profit charitable organization established by Herbert, Audrey and Bernice Carnegie in 1987. Our mission is to inspire and assist youth and adults to become the best they can be as responsible, respectful, peaceful, confident and caring citizens. Our mandates are to: foster self-esteem and ethical behaviour through the application of the Future ACES Creed and to assist youth to attain the highest level of achievement both personally and academically within their capabilities. The Foundation provides character-development and leadership training initiatives for young people across Ontario, including a three-day Leadership Conference and a one-day Elementary Leadership Symposium. More than 200 Ontario schools have the Future ACES Program and our Philosophy impacts about 100,000 youth each year. Established in 1988, our National Citizenship Award and Scholarship Program recognizes and invests in civic-minded young people who demonstrate exemplary citizenship qualities in their home, school and communities through extensive community service, volunteerism and humanitarianism.
