For 12 years, the Aspire program led in innovation by empowering youth through free one-to-one tutoring designed to help them excel academically, gain mentorship and fall in love with learning. Aspire filled a service gap by making high-quality tutoring accessible to thousands of students in communities across Mississauga at a time when tutoring supports were limited.

During the pandemic, school boards began offering free tutoring support to their students – this inspired us to use this as an opportunity to re-evaluate and reimagine the Aspire program to reflect the new needs of our students.

Aspire’s positioning in the education space will look different but our dedication to Mississauga students and seeing them thrive academically remains clear and steadfast!
