Opportunity Description:

This program is an opportunity for you to gain leadership skills, run a project of your choosing, receive valuable experience for post-secondary applications, or get volunteer hours. This is open for youths, ages 15-29 years old.

Here’s what you will do: 

  1. Identify a need/issue in your community and organize a project that will address that need/issue. You will also receive a grant of up to $500 (or more, depending on your project details) to fund your project. You can run a basketball tournament to bring youth together and promote physical exercise, you can host a video game night to help others destress, you can start a community library box to encourage reading, or you can do just about anything else you think of.*Check out this website to see more awesome community projects that you can do!

  2.  Learn from different workshops and 1-on-1 coaching to help you plan your project and gain useful skills (e.g. project planning, budgeting, etc.).

Here’s how you will benefit: 

  • Develop project management skills
  • Gain volunteer hours
  • Get a certificate of recognition and reference letter
  • Learn and/or improve your skillset (like identifying community issues, budgeting, marketing, public speaking, evaluation)
  • A chance to make a positive difference in your community!
