About Us
OUR MISSION
We are a non-profit youth organization that aspires to provide services to the undeserved and underprivileged in our community here in Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area. We believe in the gifts that every child carries and one of our aims is to foster opportunities and environments that enable youth to flourish in their hopes, dreams, passions and pursuits, in areas such as the arts, dance, and various mentorship programs! We believe having a supportive community can help us thrive, even in the toughest environments and that every child should feel loved and supported throughout their development.
Background
Two friends with common goals and dreams, Stefania Montesano and Minuete Campbell co-founded the non- profit organization in 2022. We are a grassroots organization based locally in Toronto with plans to expand across the Greater Toronto Area.
