Our Mission
At Project Bloom, we believe that every student has the right to succeed, regardless of their background or financial situation. We are dedicated to breaking down the barriers that prevent students from accessing the support they need to thrive. Through free tutoring, extracurricular activities, and leadership opportunities, we provide a platform for youth to grow, learn, and build a brighter future.
Our Story
Founded in Embrun, Ontario, by Blessing Williams, Project Bloom was born out of a deep belief in the power of education. As a student, Blessing saw firsthand how many of her peers were struggling due to a lack of access to quality resources. This opportunity gap drove her to create Project Bloom, an organization that empowers youth through free educational support and life-changing programs.
As we prepare for the official launch of our free tutoring sessions in Fall 2025, we’re building a community that supports young people in their academic journeys, fosters leadership skills and encourages personal growth. We are currently in development, working tirelessly to ensure that when we launch, every student has the opportunity to bloom into the best version of themselves.
What We Do
Tutoring & Academic Support – We provide free tutoring in core subjects, helping students build confidence and excel in their studies.
Extracurricular Programs – We offer a variety of creative and engaging programs that nurture leadership, teamwork, and personal development.
Youth Leadership & Volunteering – We believe in the power of young people to make a difference. Through leadership training and volunteering opportunities, students are empowered to take charge and create positive change in their communities.
Why It Matters
Project Bloom isn’t just about tutoring—it’s about transforming lives. We’re not just helping students pass tests; we’re giving them the tools they need to succeed in life, no matter their background. Our work is about ensuring that every student has access to the resources, mentorship, and opportunities that can set them up for a lifetime of success.
SUMMER EXTRACURRICULARS
Project Bloom’s summer programs will focus on three main areas to help students learn, grow, and connect in a supportive and engaging environment:
Learn & Grow
Academic support and life skills development to help students feel more confident in their studies and daily life. Programs will include structured study sessions, creative writing workshops, and interactive math and science activities to strengthen critical thinking. Students will also be able to develop practical life skills, such as financial literacy and basic cooking, to prepare them for real-world success.
Lead & Succeed
Leadership and career-focused programs aimed at helping students build confidence and gain valuable experience. Sessions will cover high school and college preparation, public speaking, and job readiness skills like resume building and mock interviews. Students will also have the chance to take on leadership roles through Project Bloom’s youth initiatives, where they can develop and lead community projects.
Create & Connect
Arts, music, and community-based activities that encourage creativity, self-expression, and social connection. Students will be able to explore their interests through art and DIY projects, theater and improv sessions, and music or dance activities. Mental well-being will also be a priority, with discussions on self-care, stress management, and emotional resilience. In addition, volunteer opportunities will allow students to engage with their community and make a positive impact.
