In her song Greatest Love Of All, Whitney Houston sang these words that resonate in my ear "I believe the children are our future. Teach them well. And let them lead the way. Show them all the beauty. They possess inside. Give them a sense of pride. To make it easier". This is what I felt when Ms. Ashley Lyons from SafeCity Mississauga email me about thier lastest project "Aspire" lauch on Friday March 12th. 2010 at Forest Ridge Room, 3420 The Collegeway, Mississauga.
Aspire program is run by SafeCity Mississauga and funded by the Region of Peel. The program run mainly by volunteered high school students. This program will run mainly from the Aspire Tutoring Centre in the Forest Ridge Room, a community gathering space for residents of The Collegeway/Colonial Dr. townhouse complex operated by Peel social housing authorities. Selected high school students will be paired with the younger pupils who needed helps in the neigbourhood. Tutors will also served as mentors helping those student with their school work. Students can attend one or two sessions each week.
