SASK SUPPORTS SMALL BUSINESS

BBYQR was 1 of 57 recipients of the Saskatchewan Young Entrepreneur Bursary!

Small business is awesome. It’s also hard. We love when governments (of any level) and organizations recognize this. We are so grateful to have received a bursary through the Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce to help our business elevate our tools and strategies.


BBYQR’s Co-founder and Owner Tanna spoke at their event outlining the impact programs like this have, as well as the importance of paying staff a living wage. Next media event, she’ll try casually bringing up Affordable Child Care and the importance of Housing First Initiatives! One media event at a time!
