PA Study Squad – Learn, Grow, and Succeed Together

At Project Abraham, we understand the challenges high school students face while balancing academics, extracurriculars, and personal life. PA Study Squad is a volunteer-led initiative supporting newcomer youth in Ontario, helping them build the skills needed to succeed academically and personally. Through interactive, group-based workshops, we create a supportive environment that fosters confidence, motivation, and growth.

Volunteer Role Overview:

We are seeking passionate, reliable volunteers from the GTA to help develop and facilitate skill-building workshops for newcomer youth (ages 13–26). This is not a tutoring role—volunteers help design and deliver engaging, peer-focused sessions on topics such as:

  • Time & Task Management
  • Study Strategies & Academic Self-Care
  • Essay Writing Techniques
  • Preventing Academic Burnout
  • Overcoming Procrastination
  • Goal Setting and Motivation

Volunteers are encouraged to bring creativity, energy, and collaboration to workshops, creating a welcoming space for youth to learn from one another.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Assist in designing interactive, youth-focused workshop content
  • Co-facilitate or lead 45-minute group sessions virtually
  • Engage youth participants and encourage discussion
  • Support outreach efforts to increase program participation
  • Uphold confidentiality and maintain inclusive practices

Ideal Volunteer Qualities:

  • Strong communication and organizational skills
  • Passion for youth development and education
  • Comfortable leading virtual sessions (Zoom, Teams)
  • Empathetic, encouraging, and collaborative
  • Experience in education, youth programming, or peer mentorship (asset, not required)
  • Ability to work with diverse communities and newcomer youth
  • Complete a background check (reimbursed by Project Abraham)
  • Have a device and internet connection

Why Volunteer with Us?

  • Make a direct impact on the lives of newcomer students
  • Build skills in facilitation, program delivery, and leadership
  • Gain experience in the nonprofit and education sector
  • Receive training, support, and recognition from Project Abraham
  • Join a welcoming, mission-driven team of volunteers and staff
