Top Talents 2012 - A Night to Remember!

Written By: CTYA Blogs Team

The Top Talents Awards Gala is about investing in the youth. Through the accomplishments of our youth, is important to show society that Tamil youth are continuing to make positive contributions to society. Hosting an Awards Gala as such will only guarantee that one day in the future we will have our very first Canadian Tamil athlete, artist, or entrepreneur who will be recognized in a more national and international scale.
